Working on photographic images, Elhan lives in Istanbul Exhibition: Places represent a process of building-disassembly/building-assembly. The site is divided into thousands of components and then, these components are combined again. However, this combination does not look like the previous unity and it is made to assemble a new building by using an almost cubic method. The resulting work will look like a mosaic. But the unique appearance of each part of the mosaic will show differences here as they are transformed into a building made up of what is borrowed by each part from the neighbouring parts. In this manner, physical hierarchical sequence of the three-dimensional site that makes an influence on the viewers will disappear and analysis potential of the two-dimensional image will be emphasized.
