Âsâr

Âsâr is the plural of eser: traces, signs, works — what remains after an act has passed.

On a 125-year-old dictionary page, the word becomes almost self-descriptive: the page itself is an âsâr, a trace that endured.

In the Mestûr collection, words from Şemseddin Sami’s Kâmus-ı Türkî reappear as singular artworks on their own historic pages, carrying language, memory, and gesture into the present.
