Istanbul Airport has launched a new art exhibition ‘0’ Zero Point by the artist Deniz Sağdıç, in its departures terminal, to raise visitors’ and passengers’ awareness of sustainability and recycling.

Speeding up its activities in culture and art with iGART, Istanbul Airport (IST) continues to make more space for art with its innovative projects. The latest of culture and art meetings at Istanbul Airport is taking place with the exhibition ‘0’ Zero Point by the artist Deniz Sağdıç.

Istanbul Airport aims to inspire its guests about eco-friendly habits with the ‘0’ Zero Point project. The artworks consisting of portraits with characteristics of various nationalities are being exhibited at Istanbul Airport. The exhibition, which was opened for visitors in January 2022 in the International departures terminal at Istanbul Airport, attracts great attention.

20 pieces are being exhibited, which took Deniz Sağdıç and her team four months of workshops utlising used/waste materials such as old uniforms bearing the trademarks of iGA and its stakeholders, as well as plastic containers, rubbish bags, cables, and buttons discovered and identified by Istanbul Airport’s Waste Management Centre.
