“Work in Progress” is a residency and exhibition created in collaboration with Soho House Istanbul by Hamburg-based artist duo Efkan & Oemer. The project brings their creative process into a lived space and turns the apartment itself into part of the exhibition.
A RESIDENCY AND EXHIBITION BY EFKAN & OEMER IN COLLABORATION WITH SOHO HOUSE ISTANBUL
During their stay in The Apartment, the duo lived and worked in the space, using it as a temporary studio where the atmosphere shaped their decisions. Working across canvas, paper, and skate decks with acrylic, spray paint, markers, and lacquers, they explored the point at which a work feels complete or intentionally left in a state of becoming.
The residency concluded with an exhibition held inside the apartment, opened exclusively to their invited circle and Soho House members. Guests experienced the works exactly where they were produced, supporting the collaborative nature of the project and the unique setting.
