I will Miss You Like I Missed the Future

“I will Miss you Like I Missed the Future” exhibition manifests the relativity of time over the sweet dreams of childhood and disappointments of maturity. The exhibition takes the viewer into a journey from a grave to the past of a character who belongs to the Y generation the artist himself fell under. The exhibition divided into three sections, starts with the character’s graveyard whose dreams died out when faced with the gloomy fate of the world. In the second section, there you see a poster installation which can be read as a representation of the character’s youth. At this part, character’s dreams depicted by colourful future imageries, stereotype space visuals and dystopian landscapes. Using multidisciplinary approach in his artworks, Itmec lastly invites the viewer to a kids room adorned with popular culture images. “As a child looking forward to grow up, the future has always been cherished. Movies, books, series and commercials are filled heavily with nice and bright future depictions of the future. In reality these narrations are kind of psychological rationalizations of human beings against the inevitable flow of time. However in time it was understood that humankind is too unstable and heedless to break off everything that brought him into existence. The world is dying, we are all about to die and the future is not as bright as it seemed before. The world has been exploited excessively, and neoliberal explorers have already begun for a new planet search. The child is grown up and has reached the age that he used to long but now all his wish is to return back to his childhood.”
