Exhibition - The CEO of a tear factory - Erdogan Kaplan

"The CEO of a tear factory" translates as "The CEO of a tear factory".

The exhibition takes its name from one of his works, offering both conceptual coherence and unity in the exhibition's presentation.
The exhibition room is conceived as a factory, with each work considered a part of that factory.
The exhibition deals with the destruction and degradation caused by human intervention in the environment. Kaplan's artistic practices revolve around concepts that question the destruction of natural ecosystems, the shrinking of animal habitats and the impact of environmental degradation on human life.
In her work, Kaplan addresses the damage caused to nature and other living beings by uncontrolled human interventions that place humanity above nature. The artist's aim is to draw attention to these problems and provoke reflection in the public. Using the expressive means of cinema in his work, Kaplan structures his pieces as sequences, scenes and, more broadly, as a screenplay.
His effort to combine the visual arts and film enabled him to discover new means of expression and create more powerful representations.
