İbrâz

İbrâz, from the Arabic root baraza, means to bring forth, reveal or manifest. Şemseddin Sami distinguishes it from creation from nothing: it is the unveiling of something already present but not yet visible.

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.
