"Mural 3000 by Mehmet & Kazım located at PİLEVNELİ Yalıkavak. In Mural 3000, Mehmet & Kazım magnifies the characteristic Edding drawings impressively which are reminiscent of "throw-ups," a graffiti style that has shaped metropolises for over 50 years. Inspired by Francisco Goya's "Pinturas Negras," abstract expressionists from the 1950s, Paul Klee's "Geschwister," Pierre Soulages' works, and modern scenes from Brooklyn's Bushwick, Mehmet & Kazım's unique visual language captures the urban life scene and emotions. Infusing all their iconography with various symbols and impressions from New York streets, the duo brings New York's vibrant street language to Bodrum, this time in red."

TAV Passport and Bodrum Primeclass Lounge installation
Through a second collaboration with PİLEVNELİ, TAV Operation Services has started offering TAV Passport members an exclusive art experience. This season, visitors at the Bodrum Primeclass Lounge can enjoy the works of PİLEVNELİ artists Mehmet & Kazım Akal, along with a special installation tailored for the venue.
The installation, named Edding 3000, is comprised of three distinct elements. It includes wallpaper inspired by the streets and walls of metropolises, a custom design applied to glass, and ten unique prints created specifically for the installation by Mehmet & Kazım. Despite the abstract nature of the artwork, Edding 3000 captures the recognizable language and excitement of the street.
