The Invasion is upon us!

My fellow citizens!

This morning we had sightings of unnatural yet somehow familiar forms all around the globe;

merging from any surface or space, relentlessly growing in numbers.

We have yet to discover their origins or purposes. Is this some sort of alien tech? Are aliens simply mocking us or is this how they start their invasion!?

Our scientists have no clue about what sort of materials that have been used in the makings of these horrifying structures.

We are adressing now to everyone! Stay safe.. and don't panic!

May god have mercy on our souls..

Gathering Evidence

A number of these monstosities have been documented and shared for public viewing.

It is of extreme importance that we track the movements of the invaders and try to find a pattern so we can come up with a solution...

   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

   

 


Further Down The Investigation

After a full week of living with the invaders and studying them, many authorities have presented their ideas of what they are and why are they here.

So far there hasn't been any alien activity which is good for all of us for sure.

These invaders seem to be sharing some attributes. Their shapes are rooted to man-made structures. Many resemble a window, a staircase or a door. they seem to be imitating functuning solutions but turning them into useless chunks of structural beings.


While the Vatican called this happening "A divine intervention" stating that god is finally starting to communicate with us after thousands of years.

Saying that this is the start of either our salvation or our doom; giving a hint to the apocalypse itself, scientists are still researching for new chemical solutions to be able to disintegrate or dissolve the invaders.

This event actually has raised a huge load of philosophical questions aswell. While most believe that all of this has a purpose and a meaning, many also say that we are asking the wrong questions; that we are constantly looking for a purpose to everything and this is wrong. Just like how we ask ourselves the famous questions like "why am i here? what is my goal in this universe". Maybe there is no reason.

Maybe things justs happen that don't evolve FOR us but we are only mere witnesses...

Breaking News!

We have just been informed that a young painter by the name of Deniz Dökmeoglu (I have no idea how to spell that name) have been taken into custody and is now going to be interrogated about the invaders phenomenon.

It has been discovered that many of his early works have a spot-on resemblance to the invaders and it is believed that he is the cause to this menace and therefore probably the only cure!

Here you can see the uncanny resemblence between the invaders and Dökmeoglu's works. It is shocking, truely. Did he somehow summon these things? If so, then we now have to believe that magic exits or there is a world without pysichs laws? Oh, lord. so many questions!


So here we see some early sketches:

   

 

and a finished work:

 

Interview With The Suspect

We are pleased to share with you what out suspect had to say while under custody:

C:Let's assume you are innocent and this is just the biggest coinsidence in the history of mankind. Tell us what is the idea behind your works?

D:Well, architectural structures open a wide field about social identity and the transformation of it. Duration of transformation of this identity, requires need for rapid production whereat raises comprehensive commodification. When creating my works by taking into account this process, I divide each of them into parts. Bringing references from real-world objects to this irrational space.

C:But why?

D:Because I am tired of seeing only-function oriented dirty, soulles cement blocks everywhere I go. You are where you live! We live in matchboxes! I just wanted to say something about it by creating a realm like this new composition-fiction, that does not propose a space that any individual can step on, or can include his life. By deranging and decomposing, by abstracting these structures from their functions, I present them without bringing a new proposal. To undermine the existing order, I can say I subjected them with a form and colour dominant recreating situation. This way I presented my attitude on ‘stacking’ phenomenon of modern architecture. Creating this disfunctional realm is my anarchic attitude towards only-function depending structure build. Now they got real. I never intended this but here is where we are. They are among us..

C:This says someting. So tell me, how in the HELL do we get rid of it all?

D:I honestly have no idea how these things you call invaders came to be. But if this is somehow connected to my works, we reaaaally gotta get rid of those shopping malls.

C:Damn.

D:Yeah.
