Rest in Pieces
"Rest in Pieces" presents a fictional journey created by Ahmet Rüstem Ekici and Hakan Sorar, inspired by the narrative forms of archaeological data and surfaces. The exhibition centers on the themes of death and permanence, focusing on the relationships between body and space. In 2023, the duo experimented with recording the processes of AI tools, exploring the transformation of words into images, videos, sound, and 3D objects. Inspired by the migration of frogs in Kütahya Domaniç and the frog-shaped rhytons exhibited in the Kütahya Museum, the artists investigate the production methods of nature-inspired archaeological objects and explore the concept of skeuomorphism. Enriched with AI tools, the exhibition reinterprets traces of the past from an artistic perspective, creating a museum replica that aims to transmit knowledge to the future.
