The Clique Artworks’ Series Intersections Brings Together the Layers of Istanbul at Yapı Kredi Private Banking – Maçka
The Clique Artworks conceptualizes the urban landscape as a dynamic space where layered encounters occur. The city’s silhouettes, interwoven with dense architectural networks, are fragmented and reassembled through sharp geometric planes. These interwoven forms, cutting through the canvas like shards of glass, take familiar city lines to new dimensions.
Intersections is not only a portrait of the urban space, but also a way of thinking about the crossroads we find ourselves in every day: a reflection of moments where cultures meet, decisions collide, and new directions sprout.
A Site-Specific Interpretation for Yapı Kredi Private Banking – Maçka
The Clique Artworks reinterpreted its Intersections series site-specifically for Yapı Kredi Private Banking – Maçka. This time, the series’ idea of intersection meets Istanbul itself: urban images from different parts of the city are reconstructed through geometric forms, intersecting surfaces, and blocks of color. Images of real places are fragmented and layered on top of one another, creating a more abstract and personal perception of Istanbul that goes beyond its familiar views.
Movement, Memory, and Encounters
In this series, the city is not only a place to be seen; it is a living layer shaped by movement, memory, and encounters. The relationships between architectural structures, streets, densities, and urban voids are reorganized through lines and directions. This approach makes Istanbul’s organic, ever-changing structure visible on the surface of the works and gives each composition its own rhythm and depth.
Continuity Between Art and Architecture
The placement of the works within the branch creates a strong visual connection between Istanbul’s urban character and a contemporary working environment. Geometric layers, intersecting lines, and fragmented city images are read together with the branch’s architectural order, creating visual focal points throughout the space.
Through their relationship with the surrounding architectural surfaces and circulation paths, the works go beyond being individual art objects and become elements that complete the overall composition of the space. Each work creates a new perspective and a visual encounter at different points in the branch, accompanying the daily experience of its users.
A Color Language Carried Into the Space
The color palette carries the series’ dynamic character into the space while maintaining a balanced harmony with the branch’s corporate and contemporary atmosphere. Blue, green, yellow, red, pink, and earth tones come together with neutral surfaces, allowing the works to stand out strongly within the space. Using these colors at varying intensities gives each work its own character while creating a shared visual language that carries continuity throughout the series.
A Series for Your Space
The Yapı Kredi Private Banking – Maçka project reflects The Clique Artworks’ approach to corporate spaces: understanding the space, reading its story, and creating works that belong to that story.
