Since the early 1990s, she has consistently displayed her art collection amid consumer objects, historical artefacts, found photographs and diverse ephemera, accumulated with the unerring obsession of an artist and the financial indulgence of a serious collector. These elements play off one another in highly considered trajectories, creating suggestive narratives of personal loss and political displacement

But she prefers to call herself a ‘‘director,’’ which she finds a ‘‘more modest’’ term than curator: ‘‘More like a traffic controller,’’ she has said. Having an ‘‘allergy to curatorial discourse,’’ she avoids trying to explain the art she exhibits, instead directing attention to the unlikely connections between her apparently unrelated interests. In fact, her way of talking is so opaque as to seem intentionally elusive. Of this year’s Istanbul Biennial, which she had ‘‘drafted’’ rather than curated, and had titled ‘‘Saltwater: A Theory of Thought Forms,’’ she wrote that the exhibition would combine art with ‘‘other knowledges,’’ and would do so ‘‘offshore, on the flat surfaces with our fingertips, but also in the depths, underwater, before the enfolded encoding unfolds.’’

Art as radically useless; surely that’s an expansive definition allowing for a democratic, progressive and less prescriptive field? Not so for the 2015 Turner Prize judges. For them utility was king.
