Set: 41 by Deniz Turan.Black sesame seeds, fabric, red thread, brass, stainless steel.. 2020.Statement: As in some cultures, Anatolia people believe in the power of good energy-laden breath as they believe in the healing and protective power of words, colors, and numbers. Today, still, many people make various charms, amulets, or talismans by using such elements for good luck or protection against bad luck. This work is a shadow-copy of a charm that my grandmother made for me when I was a child. She used to make it by using a piece of blue fabric, red thread, and forty-one black sesame seeds and of course her own good energy-laden breath..
