Foam presents the exhibition 'Double Portrait' by Cemre Yeşil, hosted at MAQAM in Amsterdam West. This intimate photographic series delves into the multifaceted relationship between mother and child, tackling profound themes of identity, loss, and memory. Yeşil's work challenges conventional notions of portraiture, venturing into the psychological dimensions of the photographic medium. The artist's goal is to move beyond clichés associated with motherhood, offering a raw and natural depiction. The series contemplates the 'hidden embrace' as a symbol of maternal presence, presenting personal interpretations of double portraits that capture the unfolding process of motherhood. It also serves as a visual response to the profound impact of loss. 'Double Portrait' invites viewers to reflect on the experience of being held and holding, irrespective of cultural expectations related to gender, touching upon a universal emotional truth that resonates deeply. This exhibition is part of 'Kısmet,' a multi-year initiative by Studio Polat and Foam dedicated to exploring Turkish visual culture through research, outreach, and exhibitions.
