Eşref Yıldırım performed Dissolution at Gümüşlük Festival 2025 (05/09/2025)
Eşref Yıldırım presented his performance Dissolution at the Armonia Bodrum Houses Chapel on September 5, 2025. Centering on media representation, power dynamics, and social taboos, Yıldırım’s practice examines lives shaped by social hierarchies, gender roles, and racial prejudice. Working with recycled materials and maintaining a strong dialogue with painting, he transforms context and space into active agents of meaning. Dissolution constructs as a multi-layered ritual of purification ranging from childhood memories to personal belongings, from domestic labor to experiences of loss.
