Using the building toy made of colorful wooden blocks with unlimited design possibilities, children design creative characters with the pieces they assemble on top of each other, side by side, and in various ways. In the workshop inspired by the exhibition PƎRⱯ Reverse, working in groups with different toy sets, the children give names and stories to the characters they design collectively. Then, on paper, they depict these characters in a fantastical space that they create by deforming the usual forms we encounter in daily life.
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 250 TL
The event will take place in the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

About TAHTOY
Tahtoy was founded in 2022 by artists Candan İşcan and Kerem Ardahan, who share the same studio and the same attitude towards life. With the motto "extraordinary toys for creative people", Tahtoy produces toys that liberate the play experience, nurture creativity, have no rules, and are timeless, genderless, open-ended and collectible.
Each memory tells an intimate story; each collection presents us with the reality of containing an intimate story as well. The collection is akin to a whole in which many memories and stories of the artist, the viewer, and the collector are brought together. At the heart of a collection is memory, nurtured from the past and projecting into the future.
A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
