The radio towers stood like ancient monoliths, their halos piercing through the murky atmosphere. each beacon pulsed with an otherworldly rhythm that seemed to call out to something beyond our comprehension. the three figures below appeared drawn to these cosmic lighthouses, like moths to eternal flames. this was my meditation on surveillance and sacred geometry, where cold war technology meets religious iconography. the piece emerged from memories of reading about the duga radar system, those steel prophets of the apocalypse that never came. i painted this while thinking about how we built towers to watch the skies, only to find ourselves being watched in return..

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.
