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.
Giacometti was selected for three important retrospectives at the New York Museum of Modern Art, the Tate Gallery in London and the Louisiana Museum of Art in Denmark, all of which were a great success.
In the 60s, Alberto Giacometti paid homage to Paris, the city where he lived, by drawing its streets, cafés, and more private places like his studio and the apartment of his wife, Annette. These drawings would make up his last book, Paris sans fin (Paris Without End).
Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure: Nostalgia from Sea Baths to Beaches exhibition brought together photographs, magazines, comics, objects, and books from various private and institutional collections, and told a nostalgic story while also addressing the change and socialization of the norms of how Istanbulites used their free time. Istanbul’s Seaside Leisure was a documentary testament of the radical transformations in the Republic’s lifestyle.
