Flowers in concrete by Sila Yalazan

"Flowers in Concrete", invites visitors to witness an archive of the resistance of children against government-backed gentrification in İstanbul and the subculture's "last" struggle against government policies in Turkey.
The work of Sıla Yalazan, who finds inspiration in punk aesthetics, include portraits of immigrant children crammed inside İstanbul's Tarlabaşı district (where she has been documenting the ongoing gentrification since 2013), and photographs of the 2013 Gezi protests in Taksim, as well as LGBTQ marches held between 2013-2015. Additionally, two handmade books of these photographs by the Swedish artist Karl Larsson will be showcased.
