The space between us (solo show)

Mixed media, variable dimensions

Antrepo 5, Istanbul, 2010

 

The site-specific installation «The space between» took part at the annual organisation of the «European Capital of Culture» and was financed by the Piraeus Bank Group Cultural Foundation, participating in this cultural event, at Sanat Limani-Antrepo 5, in Istanbul. The title refers to the relation between the two neighbouring countries Greece and Turkey and the controversies over sovereignty in the region of the Aegean Sea and territorial waters. Eleni Kotsoni uses fabrics, woods and beads to create boundaries and thus paths one should follow inside the artwork space. Sometimes paths are obvious and some others are transparent and invisible, creating confusion.
