Mär Martinez, a Syrian American artist and Fulbright scholar, presents new work developed during her 2025–26 Fulbright research in Istanbul. Her project investigates traditional Turkish and Middle Eastern textile techniques while reflecting on themes of urbanization, surveillance, and cultural memory. Drawing from nighttime walks through Istanbul’s neighborhoods, Martinez transforms architectural barriers, barbed wire, fences, hostile design, into motifs of resistance and reweaving. Her haunting wood paintings explore personal heritage, global textile history, and contemporary social commentary in poetic, layered form.This exhibition will be on view from April 25 to July 5, 2026.
