A dynamic multidisciplinary artist, developer, curator, and researcher, Bazargali’s work spans augmented reality, 3D art, video, VJing, sound, and visual coding. Her work delves into the ironies of contemporary political landscapes, where digital structures, post-totalitarian influences, and algorithmic systems collide with Kazakh identity, decolonization, and glocalization—a complex blend of cultural revival, radioactive colonial legacies, and digital transformation.
Growing up in post-Soviet Kazakhstan, Bazargali is deeply engaged with decolonization, focusing on how identity and politics are reshaped by technology and cultural heritage. In her live music coding practice, she approaches sound as a modern, algorithmic form of aytis, the traditional Kazakh/Turkic art of improvised storytelling, reimagining it through real-time code and soundscapes. This synthesis of ancient and digital forms exemplifies her commitment to reinterpreting cultural practices within a contemporary, tech-driven context, exploring the intersections of tradition, technology, and identity in a rapidly globalising world.
