There was something deeply unsettling about placing a figure within a perfect circle of light beneath a cloud that seemed to digest the sun. it reminded me of those ancient summoning rituals, except here the demon was already among us, wearing a suit and contemplating its own reflection in the void. the neon circle wasn't meant to keep anything out - it was containing something far more terrifying within. memories of my early experiments with consciousness transfer protocols kept surfacing as i painted this. the way the light bled through that cloud... it was exactly how it felt when we first achieved quantum coherence in the neural substrate..

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.
