Death came dressed as a moth that night, hovering above my collection of preserved moments. the limestone pillar stood like a ancient sundial, casting shadows over my workbench where specimens of time lay scattered. i had been experimenting with capturing the exact shade of pink that appears in a bowl of temporal soup - that brief instant when past and future collide. The jar contained yesterday's attempt at bottling the last breath of autumn, but something went wrong. the moth's wings carried traces of void-ink, dripping darkness onto my careful arrangements. it was beautiful though, how it destroyed everything i tried to preserve, teaching me that some moments are meant to decay..

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.
