Hara’s new exhibition Where in History Are We? Craft. Ritual. Transformation. brings together jewellery designs, texts, and performances created by participants from a wide range of disciplines and perspectives. Through these works, the exhibition explores the question: Where in history are we?
The exhibition brings together 17 artists who do not typically work with jewellery, each attempting to translate their own artistic methodology into a craft-based practice. It also explores the kinds of knowledge, symbols, and social and cultural meanings that jewellery can produce.
Alongside the jewellery pieces, the exhibition features texts by Nazlı Ökten, Ayşe Coşkun, and Efe Murad, as well as a site-specific performance created by five performer-choreographers, Canan Yücel Pekiçten, Korhan Başaran, Melih Kıraç, Seçil Demircan, and Zinnure Türe. The performance, titled The Performance of the Jewellery, features sound design by Yusuf Huysal. A three-channel video installation of the piece is presented in the exhibition, offering a new perspective on how jewellery interacts with the body.
The exhibition is shaped around three core concepts: Craft, Ritual, and Transformation.
