Fleur Dijkstra was a project in which I confronted the alienation I had experienced and sought to say goodbye to all the expectations that had been imposed on me. The project began through a conversation with artist Can Demren, who invited me to collaborate at Gallery SIGN on the theme of the “strange body in the land.” He asked me to create a performance in which I embodied a “normal” body in this context. I took on the role of a bartender during the opening, serving visitors while remaining in character and observing their reactions. At the end, I revealed myself. Later, I transformed the performance into a video work.
