INJURED MOMENTS

From the project “I Feared”, Injured Moments is a work that consists of mugshot photographs of gas capsules that were brutally used in 2013 during Gezi Park demonstrations. Painted in white and sanded layer upon layer, a certain level of smoothness is aimed to be achieved, although in order to reach that level of smoothness, these injured moments end up resembling human movements. All has a specific persona. The smooth whiteness of these gas capsules make the damage that was inflicted on these metal pieces, that were meant to harm others, visible in a sculptural and monumental way. They embody the results of violence, which cannot be read directly from their outer softness. This is the very core intention of the project “I Feared”.
