Give and Take
Collaborative Installation
Fabric, embroidery, 1’50” digital video
2025

In this collaborative installation, Dilek Aydin and Nancy Atakan, long term colleagues and friends, in keeping with the vitality of a friendship bond, born of empathy and mutual action, make the space itself seem to breathe. Dilek recites a poem explaining their relationship while embroidered words that define the bonds of friendship float in the air, shifting direction with the wind, moving between light and darkness as the projection flickers.
