This time, Elmac\u0131 explores authority through the concepts of manipulation and imitation. The artist approaches reality and imitation over the notions of past and future. He carries a critical discourse onto his canvas while referring to the ownership of the throne as a powerful symbol of authority in the past\u00a0 and accuses the current governments for drawing a parallel to their\u00a0 ancestors, a parallel that is no more than a bad imitation. He emphasizes that the ideology of the throne is mobilized through its imitation.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>In the exhibition, the artist identifies the chair as an upgrading tool, a portable object, a light material that can be accessed by anyone, with governments non-foundational, unqualified, light and compelling tones. The oil paintings of Elmac\u0131 which in his own words expose the ugliness; are gaining a new dimension over this exhibition.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>MEL\u0130S GOLAR :<\/strong> \u2018The Chair That Walked All Over People\u2019 is your fourth solo exhibition and the first in Ankara where you\u2019ll be meeting Ankara artlovers. You\u2019ve once again picked a striking title. Can you talk to us a bit about the context of this exhibition?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>AL\u0130 ELMACI :<\/strong> In this exhibition, I\u2019ve criticized the people in power, through the context of manipulation and imitation. I\u2019d like to make some definitions first.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Imitation: Trying to resemble or make something resemble a specific example.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manipulation: The process through which people are influenced without their knowledge or against their will.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throne: The big and ornamented seat on which rulers sit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chair: A piece of furniture with a single room seat, a backrest, four legs, and no armrests.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The exhibition \u201cThe Chair That Walked All Over People&#8221; is a pastiche to throne. The chair, which is a portable, mobile version of the throne, symbolizes the loosening of the ideology. I\u2019m talking about how the severity of ideology has become a weightless, rootless, disposable mechanism that anyone can easily carry. The people in power hollow out the ideology in order to quickly disseminate it among their masses and ensure its consumption. It\u2019s like instant soup\u2026The behavior of the rulers is like the service of this foodstuff that, when you add water, instantly tastes similar to soup; but it\u2019s diputable whether it\u2019s healthy or not. I liken it to those pouches ready for mass consumption on supermarket shelves under the name of \u2018Traditional Flavors\u2019. It\u2019s like how the original preparation time for these soups can take a half day; whereas the powdered soups in these pouches take 10 minutes, to become ready to serve at the dinner table\u2026 It becomes enough to simply carry the name of a traditional soup and a flavor that\u2019s somewhat similar to that of the original to be accepted. The exhibition starts exactly at this point where the people in power carry out this policy of theirs; and with it, I try to expose and underline it for the audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> If you would paint a portrait of humanity in a setting where authority and rulers don&#8217;t exist, would it still be \u201cugly\u201d?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> I can\u2019t think of a possibility where humanity exists but ugliness does not. There would definitely still be some ugliness to paint.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> We see that your artistic production has transformed over the years. Your paintings are bolder. Whereas in your previous series the characters reflected a dark and evil atmosphere with the locations they inhabited, the clothes they wore, their expressions, their gestures and other figures that completed the composition, it seems like in your recent productions there\u2019s been an increase in exposing ugliness and evil\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> In my paintings I generally try to nourish whatever is in the current news. So as we slip into a more and more evil and darker atmosphere, this is reflected directly in my paintings. My paintings currently are as you\u2019ve described, but I\u2019m not sure if that\u2019s how things will always remain. Perhaps it\u2019s just the actuality that\u2019s put me in this state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/alielmac\u0131s10-900x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-939\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/alielmac\u0131s10-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/alielmac\u0131s10-510x340.jpg 510w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/alielmac\u0131s10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/alielmac\u0131s10-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/alielmac\u0131s10-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption><em>Ali Elmac\u0131, \u2018<\/em>\u2018The Chair That Walked All Over People<em>\u2019, 2017, Siyah Beyaz Gallery<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> I once read a former interview of yours where you\u2019d said that you take the same characters in different periods and position them in your paintings in your different series. In addition to the main characters, you also use an idiosyncratic symbolism. Are the flowers, animals and objects that appear there repeated as well? Or does each have different functions in different paintings?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> Actually I can say that in general the symbols I use tend to carry the same connotations. They tend to mean the same thing but if we examine the paintings one by one there are some that carry different meanings.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> In almost all of your figures we encounter characters that turn their eyes towards us with tenacity. As the viewers look at the paintings you put them in a position as if they were being watched. What is the purpose behind this artificial locking of eyes?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> I want the spectator to feel the discomfort of being watched. When two people have a face to face conversation, they can\u2019t talk while keeping constant unbroken eye contact. One of them will become uncomfortable and avert their eyes. I also make eye contact with the viewer in my paintings. Making eye contact with the figures is both enjoyable for the audience\u2014because they have a smiling colorful figure in front of them\u2014and it eventually gives them a sense of being watched and makes them uncomfortable.This same sense isn\u2019t only present in my paintings, but everywhere. I want to remind this to the viewers. As long as we are not confronted with a pair of eyes in front of us, looking at us, we feel comfortable; but this doesn\u2019t mean that we\u2019re not being watched. With speed cameras, CCTV cameras at malls, we\u2019re constantly being watched. This is supposed to make us uncomfortable but we tend to ignore it. The sense of being watched prevents people from loosening up. These observation mechanisms are said to be implemented to prevent crime which are actually a form of societal control. So I want the viewer to feel a continuous discomfort of being watched.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> In your paintings, could we say, in addition to the main characters, that you also do a modern twist on ornamentation and miniature painting in the background of and around the figures?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> Yes, actually, I\u2019m deeply interested in miniatures. That must be one of my influences. I was born in a 34 domicile village in Sinop. We had one elementary school and only one teacher. I had a school bag, probably sewn by my mother. The bag had miniatures on it. I used that bag all through my childhood. The miniatures on that bag may be the images I saw most often of my entire life. I can still see the figures in my head. I can\u2019t recall what they were doing but there were lots of men, carrying spears in their hands. They were up to no good, as I understand; I think they were in a battle. I both loved and was frightened of that miniature. If I would have encountered those figures in real life, I\u2019d probably be afraid, but\u00a0 it also had an aspect of pulling me in. Perhaps the strange atmosphere there sowed the seeds of my paintings today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G: <\/strong>Can you mention a bit about your production process?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> First I settle on the subject I\u2019ll be working on, then I make some related sketches. After that, I photograph the figures in those sketches, possibly by myself. This requires a production. I buy clothes and objects and create some compositions. I create a collage from those photographs. Afterwards I use those collages as a jumping off point, but I do not stay completely faithful to them, then I complete the painting. I use oil paint. I usually use ink pens for the works on paper, though sometimes I use charcoal. Additionally I make sculptures. I generally see sculptures as canvas and paint onto them, and I always prefer oil paint there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"900\" src=\"https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-600x900.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-938\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-600x900.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-340x510.jpg 340w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-1365x2048.jpg 1365w, https:\/\/www.melisgolar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Ali-Harikalar-Diyar\u0131nda-2017-rec\u0327ine-u\u0308zeri-yag\u0306l\u0131boya-ahs\u0327ap-ve-ayna-155x60x78cm3-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Ali in Wonderland, 2017, oil on resin wood and mirror 155 x 60 x 80 cm<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> You went through a sad situation with your piece exhibited at Contemporary \u0130stanbul 2016. As an artist who experienced such an incident, can you think of any other events or policies that you\u2019ve been keeping up on that you believe to be controversial in the art world from our country or from around the world? If so, what do you think is the reason this situation is taking place? Where does Turkey stand in light of this example? What are some points that might urge us to think?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> There has to be a government policy that protects the art and the artist, one that will defend and provide the artist\u2019s freedom of speech. There needs to be a law. But this doesn\u2019t exist. The government policies are based around eliminating the artist and the creator. You can\u2019t expect anything from any institution. Organizations in Turkey hang the artist out to dry. Ultimately it\u2019s your kith and kin, artist friends, etc., who stand by you. There are some projects in Turkey concerning oppression. There are some artists\u2019 residencies abroad that will take you in for a period of time if you tell them that you\u2019re under oppression. To me, these solutions are insufficient. In the end, you just bounce right back into the fold after 3 months. I\u2019ve made a sculpture as a summary of the things I\u2019ve gone through since 2016. The piece, which you can see at the exhibition, is my depiction of the current country. It\u2019s a piece that portrays how the capital and the artist are positioned in Turkey, how the artist is destroyed and how this destruction is made into a parade.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>M.G.:<\/strong> Could we say that criticizing the current affairs again and again, and reflecting them back into the art is how you work things out?\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A.E.:<\/strong> Yes, that\u2019s my method. That\u2019s how it must be for anyone who creates and they must go on no matter what.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ali Elmac\u0131 strengthens the concepts he frequently
