The Unseen Poem, 2024
Installation
Diren Demir
//
There is a poem in the installation that cannot be seen. This poem was rejected and not read by the person for whom it was actually written. The installation invites viewers to scratch the surface of the poem with their nails and reveal it. In this way this interactive space is transformed into a self-healing process for the artist. The poem is placed higher and lower than a normal human height, and accompanied by stairs and pillows so that the viewer can access these areas, thus the work questions the position of the human and the body in face of the poetry.
