Connections

Connections (2022) represents the communication chain of a living habitat; how each part of this chain is connected to each other in some ways, and how they affect the other one. Every connection can come in different shapes and weights to a living being. Still, regardless of their form, they have the same importance for the whole picture, because the picture exists only because of the current connections.

In this installation, visitors are reminded of cherishing every connection they made to a living creature. It also emphasizes that humans are connected to other living beings, thus every life has an equal value and weight.

The installation is now devoted to the stray dogs of Turkey: According to a recent law of the ruling party, the stray dogs of Turkey, who form a big part of Turkish culture and live very peacefully in harmony with people are going to be put to sleep without a clear reason. In further modifications of the installation the chain will collapse and the installation will continue as the ruins of its past existence.

Execution Process
Lighting choice: In some spiritual practices, blue is believed to be the color of expression and communication. It is also related to peace and sedentary. The recycled plastic material absorbs the light and creates an ambient tunnel. The plexiglass for the bottom platform shows the organic shapes of this chain while distributing blue light evenly because of its half-glossy surface.
