Paul Segers & Ajla Steinvag: Underground
The installation ‘Undergound’ is a site-specific work in the vicinity of the Mor Yakup monestary
near Midyat. We utilised one of the many caves in the area which were used frequently by
sheepherders and possibly guerilla’s as an overnight shelter.
After installing the fake, Ed Wood-like antenna, we caught the attention of the Turkish army,
which thought it was a real satellite antenna and called the monastery where we were staying to
ask for an explanation.
