It symbolizes the fluid, aquatic nature of memory, as it can simultaneously purify, divide, connect, heal and destroy. In her solo exhibition at Green Art Gallery, Write Injuries on Sand and Kindness in Marble (13 March – 6 May), Büyüktaşçıyan uses the space’s previous life as a marble factory as a starting point for questions about frameworks of power, labour, production and reconstruction of memory. Much of Büyüktaşçıyan’s work is defined by an architectural and anthropological approach, and she often favours site-specific installations inspired by the memories found within a place. She examines the way in which virtual spaces operate in relation to the physical, and how fragments of time and memory can be unearthed, restructured and woven together to bring to life a forgotten aspect of time and history. As ever, she also touches on larger issues of geopolitics, culture and ongoing change N2 - Exhibition catalog. 15 Feb- Apr 2017. Authors: Anna Wallace-Thompson, Hera Buyuktasciyan, Haig Aivazian. ER -
