Venice Biennial Turkish Pavilion
It seems as if some people are in search of their minds, their repressed emotions and gestures, their unfinished stories scattered among the layers of this stage split in half, thinking that only by collecting these may they shape themselves as a subject. As all this happens, I try to both include and exclude myself in these events in order to bear witness. The responsibility of being a witness requires the questioning of being us.
