In the workshop inspired by the section titled "Memory of Objects" of the exhibition Souvenirs of the Future, objects that have been broken and lost their function over time but contain memories are transformed into works of art. Everyday objects gain a new form by using tile motifs, which are at the center of the exhibition. Participants use old objects as well as materials such as fabric and papier-mâché in the three-dimensional composition they create on canvas.
Note: Participants can bring their objects with a story or broken objects that have lost their function to use in the workshop.

Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
It was a quiet night in the dessert. Even the mice weren’t around. A few LEDs blinked in the dark, and the sound of a fan filled the infinite void. The conversation cutting the silence seemed to go nowhere.
