After Bath: Crossing the Social Skin reimagines the Turkish bath through an intersectional feminist lens as a space of solidarity, liberating it from its patriarchal urban context. Inverted and leaked into Istanbul’s public water infrastructure, it creates dispersed, immersive structures of fountains, pools, mist, and shade that create breathing rooms for marginalized bodies in the city. Framing access to water and shade as urban rights, it proposes affective architectures for collective care and intimacy.
