The relationship between fluidity, coincidence and intervention, which we frequently encounter in Samih Rifat's work, allows for both an experimental connection with the material and the creation of a personal interpretive space in the workshop. Participants have the chance to reproduce the layered and sensuous surface effects observed in Rifat's works with their own experiences by applying ink to different surfaces through methods such as spraying, dripping and printing.
In the second stage of the workshop, the compositions are shaped with pencil drawings on the resulting stains and color transitions. In this way, the participants shape their visual narratives with an intuitive and intellectual approach, just like Samih Rifat.
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 500 TL
The event will take place at the Pera Museum.
Three people sleeping side by side. On the uncomfortable seats of the stuffy airplane in the air. Three friends. I’m the friend in the window seat. The other two are a couple, Emre and Melisa. I’m alone, they are together. And another difference. I’ve only closed my eyes. They are asleep.
About a year ago, Ela was dead for seven minutes. Death had come to her as she was watching her younger brother play gleefully in the sandpit at the park. A sudden flash that washed her world with a burning white light, a merciless roar resembling that of a monster…
