Green Mold
Artists| Bilal Yılmaz, Eda Aslan, Deniz İkizler, Giuseppe lo Schiavo, Gökçe İrten, Horasan, Nergiz Yeşil, Sami Aslan, Sırma Doruk, Sinan Logie
Inspiration for the name of the exhibition comes from the ‘green mold’ metaphor from Emre Zeytinoğu’s article ‘New Popularization in Art’, the passage in Walter Benjamin’s book Passagenwerk ‘A green mold on a bronze work’s chemical analysis can be used to prove its authenticity and origin.’ The exhibition questions which artwork is the genuine one ; the one under the mold or the one that exists with the mold. ‘Green Mold’ offers an experience of an archaeological excavation to its audience, puts them in the position of an investigator and makes its audience a part of the creation of historiography.
Artists| Ayşe Yıldırım, Egemen Tuncer, Pınar Yılmaz
Artists Ayşe Yıldırım, Egemen Tuncer and Pınar Yılmaz are creating different forms of thinking on how the built environment that we constructed and affects our behavior. In her series, Ayşe Yıldırım simplifies the details she picked from the architecture and shapes them with void.
Pınar Yılmaz who creates a separation between outside and inside with a metaphor of window, forms a presentation about the places in which tired minds and bodies rest after the busy city life. Egemen Tuncer, who focuses on the relationship we have established with ordinary household items, revives the scenes from his studio photographs by modeling them in digital environment.
