‘My father had fears’
– Do your job recently started using the feature set of wires. Why is this stuff? What he symbolizes?
English to Turkish ‘chicken wire / wire set as’ Translating but full money wire fence. It expresses the sense of a limit with this look. I think this is our era, a material tells us. Because both very fragile, and very transparent. It is also out of time. All communication tools makes us transparent. Therefore, I want to tell myself this is exactly the material. As Freud says, ‘Where is the ego’ was’ also has. This material is a material showing to immediately turn around and. I work with him a little bit about that. Of course a lot of hard work with this material. Man can cut his hand. So many artists do not want to work with this material. But I think that has to do with my father be using this material. My father was a man who fears. So I’m used to working with such new material.
– How much time dayanırlılıg this material? Do you also care about the permanence of your work?
This strong material once. designed to be used outside the fence. Stainless steel can say. The course is broken down after a certain time. But us, that human life continues for longer life. Some of the sculptures make the fence, I am taking up over clay. ‘Dude Head (dual head) as is. sculptures made from this material can be molded again, even if it breaks, it can be repaired, reused materials.
‘I’m entertaining demons’
– How long have you been working with the fence?
In fact, I started using this new wire material. Usually a grip intensified, then I’ll tell you the notion that I choose material as unconscious. Motherhood and this material came to my mind when I start thinking about particular religions. Is there a particular gender of God, in which gender may be thinking on the question of if. Both can carry, it was very important to have a material can hold both can look alike. That was actually when I finished working on the exact timing of the father dies. At that theme to reflect on his mother after my studies I started to feel heavy material and a great lightness.
– Why do you think the concept of God together with her mother?
When I looked up I was actually looking for something more spiritual than I realized. In fact, I’m looking for my mother and I want to see people bakınıp. As the mother and baby relationship. When you look up is your mother as a baby, you can see the person’s face. At the same time I noticed that an intern while working in my studio seems to me very well. This was reminiscent of the mother-child relationship to me. You can do anything in the presence of your mother. Toys can break, you can merge. I realized that I’m always looking for that experience. Likewise with art audience … That relationship represents the full mother-child relationship. And why I’m looking to the preceding, I say. In fact, I’m looking for her mother. I can not say the same for my father. Because my father had one, did not. But all you’re looking for in the absence of the mother.
I’m talking about a completely psychoanalytic quest here. mother is the determining factor in the woman’s identity and existence as a woman. We kept asking Hani either; “I came from,” he said. I come from the vagina of course! My mother’s vagina. Maybe we stand a real, perhaps we are looking for something spiritual, but this reality. We all came from the womb.
– Your grandfather, your father, your mother … very important names in the history of each one. to continue their names, is creating pressure on you ?, a success
And it brings both positives and negatives. I carry their genes. I already have them. no one else. Discrimination is very difficult. You can see that you are intertwined. My solution was not my psychoanalysis. I liken psychoanalysis to exorcism. Bense wanted to entertain more demons with art. Among my ancestors all the way to cope with this historical heritage that became my art.
‘Female discrimination in art is done’
This work has six ball from the fence. ‘Birth’ for a watering (must be born of water for dissolution), ‘Baptism as religious to represent those who put the wine glasses were imposed. The third ball of learning to be a woman. English ‘bitch’ word Turkish in ‘bitch’ as word has two meanings. And ‘bitch’ and ‘whore’ means. I put it to him that the ball dog toy. ‘Domesticity’ is a yellow glove on the ball. No matter what women do, evcimenlikl is associated with. sculptors producing artistic disciplines for a common man like me, this is very strange. In general, an ‘art’ there, an ‘art made by women “there. so there is discrimination here. Why not just ‘art’ it not be? Anyway … when I was young it is happening all eyes on you, but you become invisible as women age progresses. As a representation of it I left empty for the fifth ball. The sixth ball is in a bottle and cut the hair in it. and represent my death because I’m moving my hair DNA with DNA has signed both my masterpiece. I believe that I protect my thanks to the vitality of this art after life.
