Sculpture in the Sun: Earth Remembers in Bodrum, Turkey

Tabish Khan, FAD Magazine, August 18, 2025
"Sun, sea and sand are what you associate with the Turkish coastal town of Bodrum. Well, now you can add another ‘s’ for sculpture. Organised by Artsa Consultancy and curated by Selcan Atılgan and Hervé Mikaeloff, “Earth Remembers” transforms the olive groves of The Stay at Bobo into a mini sculpture park featuring nine international artists. Wandering through the dappled shade, the works rise from the earth like ancient sentinels awakened by the Mediterranean light. Each sculpture enters into a dialogue with its surroundings—sometimes demanding attention with vivid colours, sometimes blending seamlessly into nature—reminding us how art and landscape can coexist in harmony."
