{İniş Çıkış Yukarı Aşağı}
As a designer, working with artists often means stepping into a space where the boundaries between art and design begin to blur. You find yourself questioning the rules you’d normally never break.with artists, you sometimes need to partially step away from your designer identity and surrender to the demands of the artwork.
I collaborated with the artist on the visual production of Iniș çıkış yukarı aşağı — a public installation made up of banners placed on streetlamps across six locations in an Istanbul neighborhood. The project features tracings of close-up images of palms, including the artist’s and their friends’, each paired with text describing the lines on their hands.
One of the main challenges was finding the right scale for the text—small enough to create a sense of intimacy as people read it up close, yet large enough to remain legible in public space. My role was to help translate this intimate and abstract concept into a clear, visual language fit for public space.
