We step into the mysterious world of young and energetic Turkish artist Selver Yıldırım with her latest exhibition "0.99999..." at Viable Istanbul in Cihangir. This captivating exhibition grabs the viewers' attention with its enigmatic and striking artworks. Taking place in Viable Istanbul, an innovative and playful space, the exhibition offers a unique experience, transforming a small shopfront into an art haven, diverging from the conventional gallery settings. Despite featuring a limited number of works, the exhibition manages to create a powerful impact. One of the most intriguing aspects of Selver Yıldırım's art is the mysterious and ambivalent atmosphere she creates in her pieces. As a playful character herself, it is difficult to discern whether she is laughing or crying, yet she successfully reflects this emotional complexity in her artworks.
Upon entering the exhibition, I was immediately struck by the intimate setting within Viable Istanbul's innovative and playful space. The venue, which is a small storefront that has been taken over by artists, offers a refreshing change from conventional gallery settings. The exhibition itself featured a limited number of works, yet it still managed to create a powerful and memorable experience. One of the most striking aspects of Selver's art is the sense of duality and ambiguity that permeates her work. As a joker herself, it's often difficult to discern whether she is laughing or crying, and this emotional complexity is mirrored in her creations. The pieces draw you into a world of contrasts, leaving you pondering the artist's intentions and your own emotional response. Throughout the exhibition, Selver's energy was ever-present, making it clear that she is an artist whose name will be echoing through the art scene in the years to come. The most enigmatic aspect of the exhibition, however, was Selver herself. Observing her interacting with her art and the visitors, I couldn't help but think that she was the most intriguing and enigmatic element of the entire experience. The exhibition at Viable Istanbul was a testament to the power of a well-curated and impactful art show, even when featuring a limited number of works. I thoroughly enjoyed the venue, the innovative concept of a storefront overtaken by artists, and the delightful surprises Selver's art brought with it.
