Silk as a Threshold

Between 01.10 - 15.11 2026 at BECA Istanbul

"Silk as a Threshold" carries art beyond its traditional spaces, inviting a closer and more experiential encounter. Here, works are not only seen but felt, and read anew through the space they inhabit. Approaching silk as more than a texture, as a surface where art comes to life in many forms, Elciela brings together artists from diverse disciplines and translates their work into wearable art and wall pieces, weaving art into everyday life.

On October 22, a special evening at Beca Istanbul carried the exhibition to the palate. Silk Punch, a bespoke cocktail created by Beca's bar team and inspired by the featured artists, captured silk's light, layered structure, and shifting colors in a glass, inviting guests to experience the exhibition through taste as well.

The program continues on November 3 with a silk surface workshop led by Elciela artist Ekin Kano.

"Silk as a Threshold" is on view at Beca Istanbul until November 15. Explore the digital catalogue to learn more about the exhibition.
