Yapı Kredi 80th Anniversary Special Edition
Depositions and Cave Formations (2024), which is commissioned for the Yapı Kredi 80th Anniversary Special Exhibition, uses junk refrigerators and other such materials from the sea.
Refrigerator skeletons, which the artist came across at a former quarry –now a junkyard– in Kınalıada, hint at the source of the ubiquitous, seabound fragments of polyurethane foam. These fridges keep most of their original volume even after all their recyclable components have been removed. It can be said that with the accumulation of these works, the artist is articulating an urban map which provides an engagement with the concept of consumption.
