In this workshop, inspired by Kıymet Daştan’s work in the exhibition Crystal Clear, “I Am Afraid To (Not) Forget” derives from an experimentation with melting discs —archival devices that now are becoming obsolete— creating crystalline disfigurements, we create art with recyclables. The geometric shapes in the materials we select will serve to guide our new design. We view each recyclable as a puzzle piece, create our design through trial and error, and use our imagination as we learn about upcycling and improve our motor skills.

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.
