Fatoş İrwen and Yaşam Şaşmazer at the exhibition Distilled From Scattered Blue at Galerist (24/09/2024)


Curated by Károly Aliotti, Distilled From Scattered Blue reflects the mysteries of the colour blue and the quest for what is yet undiscovered. It touches on wounds, memory, longing, loneliness, and distance, evoking a sense of creative pain. The exhibition borrows its title from a line in Lavinia Greenlaw’s poem From Scattered Blue, expanding from the pale blue hues symbolising ethereal innocence to the vast blackness of the all-absorbing universe. 

 

Sponsored by QNB Finansbank Private Banking, the exhibition will be on view at Galerist between September 24 and November 2, 2024.
