Collective Based Projects

These are the projects I did or was a part of.

1. Stickers of Streets:
*I am no longer a part of this project, Stickers of Streets.*
Stickers of Streets is a local sticker collective based in istanbul, Türkiye. 
We introduced the stickers of the artists in the Istanbul alternative culture and created an archive about them. In addition, we organized various events that include all artists and art lovers. For example, we organized a bazaar for earthquake victims and various workshops where we designed stickers.

2. iZbe Pirintz:

2023-2024 (in an hiatus)
iZbe is a creative amateur cultural project founded by me. It is founded in the Punk idea of "Do It Yourself." It self-publishes stuff, stuff being niche photozines and sticker books of collective work; podcast series and articles.

Currently and actively run by one person and aiming to provide visibility to many people, iZbe is the output of the alternative local scene, mostly based in Istanbul [(fan)zines, street art (especially stickers) and many forms of production such as graffiti]. By working with many figures from the alternative scene and the academy who work on these alternative fields and forms of productions, we aim to publish articles and create various podcast interview series on these related topics.

iZbe is on its way to becoming a cultural project of the alternative scene of Istanbul. My biggest motivation for doing these projects under iZbe is *curiosity*. Because I am curious, I do not hesitate to ask questions to the relevant people and share with you what I have learned. As I said, iZbe is not only an attempt to create a personal archives of the alternative scene, mainly in Istanbul (since I live in Istanbul), but also aims to provide myself and those who are interested with the opportunity to better understand and get to know this culture.
