BLACK SEA RESONANCE
Transposition / 6th edition of Sinopale – International Sinop Biennial
Sinop, Turkey, August 1 – September 17, 2017
Spatial drawing made of driftwood charcoal, 4 × 7 × 5 m

In Sinop, Ulrike Mohr collected driftwood from the Black Sea, transformed the found objects into charcoal, and presented them as a large-scale spatial drawing. Her work is a metaphorical act of scratching at the surface of materials — revealing their inner layers and exposing the potential for physical transformation inherent in every substance. Black Sea Resonance explores the idea of adopting a dual perspective: one that is intimately close, physically engaging with the material, and at the same time distant and observant — resonating with the natural rhythms and patterns of the Black Sea.
