Patron, 2022

Antique enamel bathtub ship origamis
80 cm x 180 cm x 60 cm

Inspired by Aenne Burda, the creator of the fashion and sewing magazine Burda (a.k.a. the queen of patterns), the installation “Patron” glorifies the efforts of the female entrepreneur. The origami ships exhibited in an antique enamel bathtub were created using sewing patterns from Burda magazines published since the 1950s to date. The guidelines on the patterns represent the female entrepreneur’s road to success. The word “patron” means both boss and sewing pattern paper in Turkish.
