Join us for a late-summer conversation exploring the stories, science and symbolism of water; from the ancient Menderes River in Turkey to the wild North Sea coast of Scarborough.
Turkish artists Aşkın Ercan and Gökçe Suvari, currently on artists’ exchange in Scarborough, are hosted in-conversation by Invisible Dust’s director Alice Sharp. Together they will delve into the histories of Ephesus, the environmental crises facing rivers and coastlines today, and how art can help us imagine more resilient futures.
Part of ‘Forecast Türkiye: Memory of Water / Suyun Belleği’, a programme by Invisible Dust and Teos Culture and Art Association, Izmir, bringing together Turkish and UK artists and scientists to draw inspiration from the beautiful wildlife of Selçuk, the Scarborough coastline, and the Derwent River running through the North York Moors.
Supported by the British Council’s Creative Collaborations Grant Programme. In partnership with the Municipality of Selçuk, Çamtepe Ecological Life Center, the Old Parcels Office, and scientists from Hull and Istanbul Universities.
