Costume, Camera, Catharsis!

Pera Adult

  • May 16, 2025 / 19:00

In Marcel Dzama's magical world, everywhere is a stage, and music, dance, performance, and costume are the tools of expression. Take on a character you've always wanted to be, or maybe you've been hiding deep inside!

In this workshop, participants reveal their creativity by designing their costumes and characters. Then, a short script is written, and a mini-performance is developed. After getting into character with face paints, fabrics, and accessories, participants shoot short movie scenes in groups. Whether classical narration is preferred in the editing phase or the script is created quickly with the support of artificial intelligence, a collective story emerges.

Instructor: OyunMu
Capacity: 10 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 500 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum.

About OyunMu
Founded by architect Merih Bengisu Yiğit, OyunMu is a collective focused on creating game-based projects with a team of ten people from different disciplines. Organizing workshops, interviews and publications for both adults and children, OyunMu interprets games from the perspective of art, architecture and communication. The concept of ‘play’ is always at the center of their projects, which they carry out within the scope of a sustainable development plan. The purpose behind the OyunMu collective's focus on games is to highlight the potential of games to play a formative role in cultural practices and trigger social change, while also focusing on their educational, creative, entertaining, relaxing and socializing possibilities.

The Conventions of Identity

The Conventions of Identity

The exhibition “Look At Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection” examined portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Paintings, photographs, sculptures and videos shaped a labyrinth of gazes that invite spectators to reflect themselves in the social mirror of portraits.

“The portrait tells us that there is an inner and an outer dimension of the human condition; it provides—or should provide—information about both the physical and psychological character of an individual.”
