Singing Sparks

Görkem Arıkan

Görkem Arıkan received a grant from Amarte for his project Singing Sparks.

“Singing Sparks” is a sound installation and a video documentary, emerging from an artistic research co-created by sound artist Görkem Arıkan and car mechanic İbrahim Tokkaya. The project focuses on establishing a close relationship among the artist and car mechanic in order to bring out the use of sound and explore the cultural aspects of listening by researching noise in society and its mediation among diverse backgrounds living on the same land together.
