Impossible Sculptures no.26 | Part.1

The impetus and dynamic orchestration of the fluctuating bodies in Impossible Sculptures symbolise the eternal tension between the terrestrial and the celestial. The work of artist duo, Hande Şekerciler and Arda Yalkın (ha:ar) centres on themes that span from our ancestral feelings to the postmodern sense of alienation. Impossible Sculptures capture the essence of our times. The artists portray dense compositions of bodies that appear reborn amidst an ethereal surrounding, reminiscent of an ultra-contemporary Renaissance.

Impossible Sculptures No.26 is the first video ha:ar has produced for this series. The work was exhibited for the first time at Contemporary Istanbul between 5-10 October 2021 and has a performative feature; two new scenes has been added to the video every day, resulting in a video work that evolved throughout the show. The piece has been completed with the addition of an audio channel in the evening of October 10th.
