Architecture - Summary:
Ayşe Erkmen’s site specific intervenes in one of the 16 metre high iron columns located in the main entrance to Azkuna Zentroa´s Atrium.
Thus, Myself on Site becomes a “selfie-sculpture” and the Atrium a pedestal for this only column that is intervened. Just as Azkuna Zentroa is a specific cultural place, the artist’s name as the sole message represents a specific attitude towards art, where the endless and uncountable repetition imposes a kind of entropy.
A green tape is woven around the pillar from floor to ceiling like ivy. The fabric, signed with her name and repeated multiple times by way of a logo or brand, confers the work the form of a self-portrait on authorship, reproduction, identity and identification.- Related activities:
