- General Note:
- Published on the occasion of an exhibition at Depo, Istanbul, May 18-June 24, 2018 and Archive Kabinett, Berlin, Germany, September 14-October 12, 2018.Labor migration is worldwide creating new models of the transnational family, which despite geographical distances strives to maintain contact between the separated family members. But, how is the relationship between parents and children to be redefined whenever gifts and material support take the place of shared experience? When physical closeness has to take second place to communication programs like Skype and WhatsApp? How does this changing family landscape impact children and their parents? Bitter Things retraces positions on this topic from the 1960s right up to present day perspectives. -- back cover.
