torna conversations

We love having an informal written conversation with the artists we work with. We hope to do more of these in the near future. These conversations are great sources to hear the ideas directly from the makers.

torna conversations #3
with Charlie Coffey

"I’ve drawn words for a long time now, it's been a persistent, though not always dominant, thread within my work. I seem to find myself time and time again pulled back into working with different modes of public display or distribution of ideas/information, like the billboard, street sign, leaflet, map or poster"

torna conversations #2
with İrem Günaydın

There was a text with its lights on in torna, spoke slowly throughout the night. At the same time, across the sea in Karaköy, there were a couple of large sheets of paper hung in a room in an arcade. There was sound.

torna conversations #1
with Caitlin Franzmann

“In this world, there are two times. There is mechanical time and there is body time. The first is as rigid and metallic as a massive pendulum of iron that swings back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. The second squirms and wriggles like a bluefish in a bay. The first is unyielding, predetermined. The second makes up its mind as it goes along.”
