Merve, 2013. Intervention on the booklet Mental Space, supplement of the art magazine Sanat Dünyamız.

The first article published in print about my work was in the first issue of the supplement to the art magazine Sanat Dünyamız, Mental Space.  I thought that to write about my practice for this new publication was professionally precarious both for the editor and the author. I underlined the iterations of my first name, thus tracing a moment of canonization. I made two editions of this work and gifted one to the writer and one to the editor.
