The Sediment exhibition reflects on the impact of socio-political, ecological, and economic issues on the environments we inhabit. This exhibition’s starting point is based on comprehensive curatorial research in the archive of Loading, a non-profit art space focused on Diyarbakir and its surrounding areas in southeastern Turkey, which provides a layered perspective on the local art scene along with the socio-political and environmental issues affecting the Kurdish-inhabited regions. The strong positioning of women artists in the archive shaped the project. The exhibition, as one of the outcomes of the research, brings together names from the archive and two artists from Graz and Skopje, by including locations from the Hevsel Gardens in the Tigris river basin to the ancient city of Hasankeyf, as well as the rivers Vardar and Mur

This is the first exhibition in a series with guest curators.
