GÖRKEM ACAROĞLU  

A time-based projection installation onto two large slabs of ice. Two human figures become aware that they are trapped within the ice over a 15 minute period (moving from indifference to terrified), all the while the ice slowly melts. 

​

The work explores the impacts globalisation, accumulation, speed and extraction have on our relationships with one another and the planet.

Presented as part of the Connect for Creativity Art and Technology Residency at Atölye in Istanbul, funded by the British Council Turkey and the European Union.
