publication launch + reading program curated by Nikolaos Akriditis
Nikolaos Akriditis kürasyonunda yayın lansmanı + okuma programı
My contribution to the project is a text titled virgül (comma). After being approached by the curator to join the publication that would be presented at the frequently visited tea house in İMÇ’s 5th block, I began contemplating and conspiring around my personal memories with tea. Tea, the beverage itself and the drinking culture around it, was something I learned to only enjoy later on in my life despite having been born and raised in İstanbul. Virgül is therefore a text that parallels my relationship to tea with those other things that share similar timelines, histories and feelings throughout my life.
