Pale violet from mussel shells. There is something beautiful about color when you know its origins - it was made in the ocean under the waves.
I got the opportunity to do some work on DropMix, a new game by Harmonix that recently came out! This was one of THE most fun things I have worked on - many thanks to everyone in the team involved in making it happen!
I went to the beach with my 1957 Kodak Pony IV and all my photos came back super hazy and old-looking. It is okay if you want to pretend I took these is 1957
Aslı Alkan, Childless Complete Woman, 2016
“After learning how to stitch from my aunt who is around her 50’s now, I have decided to make her portrait. I have imagined her in her 30’s. Her life was not that easy, had depression issues since I know her. She loves reading, handcrafts (master of many types), traveling and crossword and never got married. On the wall there is ‘childless complete woman’ poster (ode to one of our politician’s statement about ‘childless women are not complete’).”
This piece took nearly two months to complete! If you would like to see more of her Aslı Alkan’s work, check out her instagram. She is based in Turkey.
