Children transfer the world of Calculations and Coincidences, which creates patterns with colors and shapes, onto their canvases. The workshop, led by Pley Studio, combines the artistic practices of three female pioneers of algorithmic art with inspiration from the traditional craft of hand weaving. Children first make holes in their canvases by creating computational gaps, then thread colored threads and fabrics through the holes and tie knots. At the end of the workshop, children create their woven works on canvas.

About Pley Studio
Pley is a creative design studio that is based on the concept of playfulness. Aiming to help people stretch possibilities and enter the magical circle—namely, a free and playful state of mind—Pley uses open-mindedness as a tool. Addressing the concept of 'homo ludens,' which advocates that humans are playful beings, Pley serves as a guide to the game, appealing to both children and adults who engage in play.
A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards. Today, the collection can be considered one of the most important and outstanding examples among the rare, consciously created, and long-lasting ones of its kind in Turkey.
The exhibition Look at Me! Portraits and Other Fictions from the ”la Caixa” Contemporary Art Collection examines portraiture, one of the oldest artistic genres, through a significant number of works of our times. Through the exhibition we will be sharing about the artists and sections in Look At Me!.
