Joya: AiR / Berk Icli and Zeynep Ercan / TUR

‘This testimonial would have been written in the perspective of ‘I’, if not for our experience in Joya: AiR that bent and later broke down our boundaries, enabling us to work together as a ‘we’. Through the urge to cross unknown territories caused by the grand landscape, we gained courage to stir things up in relation to our disciplines, hence we came home with a lot to unpack and even more to manifest. The little things such as conversations, hikes, dinners, games and laying by the fire, all can be easily taken for granted, but with a closer look one can realize how carefully curated Joya: AiR is. Our time is well spent, we are grateful for the memories. Love to Simon, Donna, Hassan, Fou Fou & Frida -’
