Turkey Innovation Week 2025, with its theme “Tomorrow: Now,” is transforming into a vision platform where the future isn’t just discussed, it’s experienced. This year’s exhibitions and installations, which will take place at the event venue, are poised to offer attendees a multi-dimensional experience, combining technology with art, fashion with light, and waste with aesthetics.
The event, taking place at the Haliç Congress Center from October 9-11, will showcase digital art, sustainable design, interactive installations, and AI-generated films in the exhibition spaces.
FROM SKETCH TO PIXEL: DIGITAL ART “TOMORROW NOW” EDITION
The “From Sketch to Pixel” Digital Art Exhibition, returning with a special “Tomorrow: Now” edition for TIW25, brings together works by Alp Yüksel, Ayşegül Altunok, Büşra Kuruçay, and Mehmet Pala. In this exhibition, where artificial intelligence-based productions are highlighted, audiovisual worlds created by algorithms and databases offer attendees an aesthetic intertwined with technology.
WEARABLE ART WITH TECHNOLOGY: PHYGITAL FASHION BY ARZU KAPROL
Fashion designer Arzu Kaprol combines technology and fashion with her garments created using fiber optic cables. These garments, which appear like ordinary fabric during the day, interact with light and transform into a light show on stage at night.
FROM WASTE TO ART: MUSTAFA TUĞRUL AND DURUL BAKAN
Mustafa Tuğrul’s sculptures, created entirely from metal waste, draw attention to the exploitation of nature, the cycle of consumption, and the human condition amidst the wheels. Durul Bakan, on the other hand, reflects the philosophical depth of recycling with works created using naturally formed branches.
THE HIGHEST POINT OF INTERACTION: MOTIFS CREATED BY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
Developed by Eosa New Media Studio, the “Journey of Motifs” and “Anatolian Sounds” installations transform Anatolian motifs and music into digital narratives through visitors’ touch. Each interaction initiates a new story with AI-powered content.
CINEMA OF THE FUTURE: ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE FILMS
Short film screenings, scripted with AI by artists Can Büyükberber, İrem Çoban, and Sefa Kocakalay, strikingly demonstrate how cinema and technology are intertwined.
RECONSTRUCTING THE ECOSYSTEM WITH ART
TIW25’s “Eco Innovation Zone” showcases projects dedicated to sustainability, environmentally compatible technologies, and environmentally sensitive productions. Similarly, the “Social Innovation Zone” features projects and collaborations focused on social benefit.
