 Stationary Story (ies)

excerpts and notations:

January 1986, I met Laurent ..he said "you are so close, you must go"

and just as the author from "Museum of Innocence" collected hundreds of items that his beloved had touched, I have collected memories from a city

the actual 'Museum of Innocence' has become concretized in Cihangir, Istanbul, I was there the day is opened in 2012....only to stand in the adjacent lane and converse with other travelers (from Berlin)...we all arrived 5 minutes after that new museum had closed for the day...however a most enlightening conversation ensued on her doorstep.....

....memories: friendships, explorations, food, music, dance, writing, walks, shopping, musing, boating, hiking, bathing, listening, singing, heartbreaks and beholdings.......
.....................................................................................................
pulling from 27 years of 'closeness', my memory museum gets distilled into a space on Istiklal Caddesi in that same city.....show will open January, 2013
