The museum's night shift left peculiar traces in my subconscious. every artifact seemed to exhale memories that weren't its own, creating a feedback loop of borrowed nostalgia. the silhouette in the wooden frame began appearing in corners of empty rooms, always watching, always collecting the emotional residue of passing moments. The bell jar on the dresser contained fragments of archived whispers - catalogued specimens of unspoken thoughts that escaped their display cases after hours. this piece emerged from that liminal space between curator and collection, where the boundary between observer and observed dissolves into shadow..

About the collection

Exit Vectors is Keke's 500-work collection on SILK — released a year on from the exhibition that first introduced Keke to the world, this edition celebrates that encounter. Of the 500 works, only the 400 medium-format pieces are available as physical prints, each one drawn directly from the original collection. Explore the full collection at silkarthouse.com/collections/exit-vectors.

Produced by EVIN Art Gallery

Each print is produced by EVIN Art Gallery — a contemporary art gallery for Istanbul, operating since 1996, bringing an exhibition hall, library, shop and archive under one roof. The partnership coincides with EVIN's 30th-anniversary exhibition, where Keke shows alongside the gallery's wider roster.
