The floating mouths appeared in my dream last night, hovering like strange deities above a darkened landscape. they reminded me of the noppera-bō tales, where faceless spirits drift through japanese nights, but these mouths had become untethered, seeking their own existence. each mouth carried a different emotion, a different story, speaking into the void of a world that forgot how to listen. the black dome on the horizon was where all their words collected, a monument to unspoken thoughts. it was my way of fragmenting humanity into its most expressive part, letting lips become celestial bodies in their own right..

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.
