Leaky Turns: Stories from Amsterdam’s Waterlands11 Syys 2025

Müge Yilmaz

Drawing from her research on salinization and her long-standing relationship with water, Müge Yilmaz reflects on pollution, salt-loving plants, and the importance of understanding water not just as a resource, but as a living presence shaped by – and responding to – human and non-human forces. In her work with the collective 4Siblings on a semi-urban, semi-wild plot in Amsterdam, they explore growing food and engaging with ecology through direct, embodied experience and praxis, rather than solely relying on theory.

Born in Istanbul, Müge Yılmaz lives and works in Amsterdam. Her research and artistic practice presents speculations influenced by feminist science fiction and proposes future narratives through installation, performance and photography. She has been a resident at Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten, a researcher at Rietveld Academie, is a co-founder of 4Siblings collective and is the admin of @feministcifi.
