Focusing on the values that cities carry from the past to the present, the workshop reinterprets Istanbul through the elements that constitute urban culture and identity. In three sessions with different participants, the workshop concludes with the creation of a collective narrative of Istanbul using fabric and tulle. This narrative becomes part of the interactive structure of the PƎRⱯ Reverse, inviting visitors to engage with the artworks and the process-oriented approach. The installation, growing with each workshop, is displayed on the wall of the Pera Learning workshop throughout the exhibition.
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL
The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

Knowledge of plants and the practice of healing are closely entwined. The toxic or hallucinogenic nature of some roots, and the dangers associated with picking them, conferred a mythical or magical character and power.
The shrines that created the glory of Constantinople through their lavish beauty were also repositories of precious relics and thus sources of healing.
Beliefs surrounding illness and healing in Byzantium stem from the myths, astrology, and magic practiced around the Mediterranean by Jews, Egyptians, Mesopotamians, and Greeks.
