In December 2002 we were invited by the Dutch foundation BKVB (foundation for Architecture, Art and Design) for a 6 months residency-period in Istanbul in the new Contemporary Art Center; Platform Garanti. During the residency we realized two projects: Searching for a Clay Language! Searching for a Clay Language! in collaboration with the artist group Oda Projesi (The Room Project) and the children of the neighbourhood, which are involved in Oda Projesi (at that time age 5 – 18) and 20 Minus Minutes in Platform Garanti, where we transformed the exhibition space into an experiential and performative environment – a playground-laboratory.
