THE BUTTERFLY EFFECT

Ortaköy Kethuda Hamam Exhibition Hall

March 21-25, 2024

The group exhibition titled “The Butterfly Effect” meets art enthusiasts with the aim of supporting the devastation caused by the earthquake disaster that occurred on February 6, 2023, through art. The exhibition was created by the collection of works donated by artists from our country to contribute to Hatay, Kuzeytepe, Örnek Evler Life Village. The event is organized with the contributions of Zülal Çakıcı, Hamide Göksan, Tarık Hotamışlıgil, and Haldun Dostoğlu, with the support of the Art for Good Association. The initiative of interior architect Zülal Çakıcı, who asked herself, “What can I do for the earthquake zone?” right after the earthquake disaster, and the Örnek Evler Life Village project, which came to life with the gathering of over 4,000 volunteers and hundreds of brands at the Tüyap Fair Center, has been an important beacon of hope. Led by Zülal Çakıcı, Hamide Göksan, and their team, this special living village located in Antakya/Hatay on a 66-acre land filled an entirely empty area with hundreds of people, homes, trees, and hope with 100 tiny houses. Örnek Evler Life Village has been hosting earthquake-affected families since October 22, 2023, with its social areas, providing them with rehabilitation opportunities. Organized by Tarık Hotamışlıgil, with the contributions of the Art for Good Association, the “Butterfly Effect” exhibition aims to provide artistic solutions to these needs and to reach a wider audience, highlighting the butterfly effect of the Örnek Evler Life Village in Hatay and drawing attention to the purpose of this volunteer project, encouraging society to be sensitive to this special initiative. The exhibition, which takes place with the participation of many valuable artists, aims to highlight the healing and unifying power of art.
