As the artist sifts through a collection of photos and archive materials from the years James Baldwin spent in Istanbul, he narrates a speculative biography of both Baldwin and himself. Drawing from Turkish photographer Sedat Pakay’s images of Baldwin, pop culture artifacts of the period and the artist’s own family photos, Safoğlu’s essay weaves together a personal and complex analysis of race, sexuality and the position of an outsider in a foreign land. -Taken from Images Festival 2014 catalogue    &
