Object:

Do objects belong to us, or do we end up belonging to them?

Ezgi:

We choose to own them, but they come to belong to us. When they don't belong to us, we definitely realize that something is wrong and we don't want them either. I can literally call it an emotional relationship.

…A warm and varied object; just like me and my life hahahaha...

Object:

If you wanted to describe your life through a single object, what object would that be and why?

Ezgi:

I think I'd say socks. A warm and varied object; just like me and my life hahahaha..

Object:

Is there any object you collect as a collection item?

Ezgi:

Actually, there is, but it's not a specific thing. I have a shelf in my room; I try to add everything that is tiny, cute, and unusual to it. For example, I have Lego people who are on vacation, sunbathing on sunbeds. :)

Object:

When producing or choosing an object, which emotions guide you?

Ezgi:

That's a very nice question. I guess I'd say feeling strong, happiness (always), and excitement…
