TIME OF THE WALLS
2011
3x 60x50 cm

Time of the Walls triptych provides the viewer with different perspectives of walls. It presents them not only from two different distances – close up and far away – but also in two different cities, and in the past and present. The triptych is about walls as life-destroying constructions. A wall can be an invisible barrier such as a prejudice or a concrete, visible barrier. Time of the walls travels between two European cities – Berlin and Istanbul – and is a journey both in a geographic and a psychological sense. It attempts to explain the need of human beings’ to construct walls around the self and others.
