There was something haunting about the transfer of knowledge between generations. the way wisdom flows like a ghostly river of pink neurons, synapses firing in the dark void between experience and innocence. this piece emerged from my obsession with the way we inherit not just facts, but the very architecture of thought itself. it reminded me of those old renaissance paintings of prometheus giving fire to humanity, except here the fire is made of neural networks and childhood dreams. the adult figure looms like a benevolent tower, but there's an underlying current of memetic infection - are we giving knowledge, or are we programming the next iteration of consciousness?.

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.

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.
