Ras(t)gele

2021

As her installation harbours visual records of diving experiences in the Bosphorus, Zeynep Kaynar refers to different dimensions of migration traffic within the ecosystems of Istanbul and the Marmara Sea, which facilitates a broad biodiversity thanks to the quality of its passageway. The conceptual frame of the work comprises the role of migration in terms of social and cultural diversity, as attributed by the artist. And the Turkish word “rastgele” whose spelling varies throughout history, basically refers to the wish of plenitude, and is part of the artist’s invitation to her audience to re-consider this richness and the differences within its diversifications.
