Elgiz Museum
Istanbul, Türkiye

Istanbul is the most crowded, chaotic, exhausting, yet one of the most beautiful
cities in the world. Today, this city, trapped in concrete and metal, has become a
stifling city where people are separated from nature, unhappy and depressed. As
an artist who lives and works in Istanbul, I’m inevitably affected by this situation.
“Construction” represents an image of humanity searching for self-boundaries
and possibilities of existence within the urban scape. This figure, separated into
two parts and rising, is the representation of humanity, one that’s trapped in the
city built by himself, a city that eventually transforms into concrete and iron -the
very materials that surround the city itself.
