As the airline flying to more countries than any other, we are committed to connecting the world through the universal language of art and culture. Within the framework of this mission, we are proud to be a brand that supports art at every point, building bridges with different cultures through art.”
Refik Anadol stated: “The Inner Portrait project is a journey that expresses the change travelling creates in the human mind and body at the intersection of science, life, and imagination. I am very excited to be able to present this work to the audience at the Atatürk Cultural Center (AKM), one of Istanbul’s most important cultural centers. The project aims to develop both our imagination and the way we perceive the world by bringing together a vast data archive consisting of the biological responses of the travelling participants with art.”
