”The World’s Companions”, 2017 , performative installation, 90 minutes, Bomontiada, Istanbul, Turkey

The encounters with the world’s companions are intertemporal. When everybody and I go aside, the yard fills with the companions. While those who are angry, recovering, hopeful, offended, waiting for being forgiven, lovers, game lovers, wishing for clarifying, unsuccessful, chosen, purifying… fill the yard, at one night, you can join to dance and create a time path. Who knows? Maybe the time path may meet you with brand-new you…

The World’s Companions, as being special to the venue, is a 90 minutes memory search which is constructed in the configuration and interpretation of bod-space together. This search period is a state of being related in which the roles of the observer-observed change while the dance, music and game match themselves to the body.
