Costume, Camera, Catharsis!

Pera Adult

  • May 16, 2025 / 19:00

In Marcel Dzama's magical world, everywhere is a stage, and music, dance, performance, and costume are the tools of expression. Take on a character you've always wanted to be, or maybe you've been hiding deep inside!

In this workshop, participants reveal their creativity by designing their costumes and characters. Then, a short script is written, and a mini-performance is developed. After getting into character with face paints, fabrics, and accessories, participants shoot short movie scenes in groups. Whether classical narration is preferred in the editing phase or the script is created quickly with the support of artificial intelligence, a collective story emerges.

Instructor: OyunMu
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 500 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum.

About OyunMu
Founded by architect Merih Bengisu Yiğit, OyunMu is a collective focused on creating game-based projects with a team of ten people from different disciplines. Organizing workshops, interviews and publications for both adults and children, OyunMu interprets games from the perspective of art, architecture and communication. The concept of ‘play’ is always at the center of their projects, which they carry out within the scope of a sustainable development plan. The purpose behind the OyunMu collective's focus on games is to highlight the potential of games to play a formative role in cultural practices and trigger social change, while also focusing on their educational, creative, entertaining, relaxing and socializing possibilities.

A Night at Pera Museum

A Night at Pera Museum

Celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, Pera Museum invites artist Benoît Hamet to reinterpret key pieces from its collections, casting a humorous eye over ‘historical’ events, both imagined and factual.

Is Istanbul a single city? Will Istanbul too, be one day one day divided into different sections, and numbered like the arrondisements of Paris? These are tough questions indeed!

From two portraits of children…

The Suna and İnan Kıraç Foundation’s Orientalist Painting Collection includes two children’s portraits that are often featured in exhibitions on the second floor of the Pera Museum. These portraits both date back to the early 20th century, and were made four years apart. One depicts Prince Abdürrahim Efendi, son of Sultan Abdulhamid II, while the figure portrayed on the other is Nazlı, the daughter of Osman Hamdi Bey.
