I attended a wonderful residency/workshop in Belgrade, Serbia and Istanbul, Turkey from August 20 - September 8. 100 young artists from around the world gathered to discuss their work and mount an exhibition. We were present for the opening of the Istanbul Biennial, as well.

I traveled with two fellow grad students, Chris O’Leary and Jihyun Kim. We were then joined in Istanbul by Pinar Yoldas.
