As Onaranlar Kulübü, we brought to life a creative street installation project inspired by the beloved pop culture series Rick & Morty, bridging Istanbul and Germany through an imaginative narrative. Drawing from the show’s iconic portal concept, we reinterpreted the idea across two cities—starting in Istanbul’s Şişli district and continuing in Cologne, Germany.
The first part of the project featured a street installation in Şişli, Istanbul, designed to give the impression that Rick and Morty had partially passed through a portal, leaving fragments of themselves behind in the city. In the second phase, the continuation of the portal was installed on the facade of the Allerweltshaus building in Cologne, playfully highlighting the connection between the two cities through a fun and engaging story.
