Elimin kiri, ekmegimin rengi

In Istanbul I started to capture unspoken stories. I have been looking for retired craftspeople who currently still carry on their work for their daily living. I was able to collect so many extraordinary stories and learn just as much from them, because it was also possible to communicate back then without online platforms. The coppersmith mentioned that he was not earning as much as before, because many products what he produces no longer have value and are produced in a massive production. These kinds of experiences help my process with the digital world because it allows me to compare between these two narratives and look for a way out. The challenge is to keep both worlds alive without damage.
