Chantal Zakari is a Turkish artist who was trained as a graphic designer. She has been designing hyper narratives for the Web practically since its inception: I.D. was published on the Web in 1994. She collaborated on a Web journal, The Turk and The Jew, with her husband Mike Mandel and in 1998 they published the work as an artists' book under the same title. In 2001 under the pseudonym Show-n-tell, she began a four-year-long performance and documentation of an adult Webcam community. She authored and designed the book webAffairs (Eighteen Publications, 2005). Zakari is currently collaborating with Mandel on an artists' publication about the conflict between secularist culture and the Islamist movement in Turkey. Their journey, which began in 1997, has resulted in photographic images, video interviews, and public performances. Zakari is a faculty member at the Museum School, and also an associate member of the Goat Island Performance Group, based in Chicago. She has had solo shows nationally and internationally.
