Seapeaker: Making the Urban Voices Heard

Istanbul Modern, MoMa
Istanbul, Turkiye

“Seapeaker” is an urban intervention, reconnecting the land to the sea by carrying the sound. With a form that opens up to a performance area, Seapeaker is both a sculpture and an arts space with an inclusive experience.
