Conversation with Sidar Alışık, Mehmet Çimen, and Ferhat Salman: Spatial Self, Traces, Memory, and the City

Focusing on the relationship between the city and the individual, this seminar is led by artists Sidar Alışık, Mehmet Çimen, and Ferhat Salman, who are based in Mardin. Through their artistic practices, the artists address personal and collective memory, the relationship between memory and space, and its transformation. Beyond the physically visible, the discussion also considers city images that expand in layers through sounds, stories, memories, and traces, while exploring the concept of the spatial self.
