Arcangelo Sassolino and Pascale Marthine Tayou unveil new site-specific works at Tersane Istanbul, transforming the historic shipyard into a space of tension, movement, and material poetry.

Sassolino’s kinetic sculptures expose the fragility of metal under force, while Tayou’s vibrant assemblages trace global flows of identity and migration. Together, they reimagine the industrial past as a stage for urgent contemporary reflections.
