This artist’s book comprises selected drawings by Inci Eviner and the poetic texts she wrote in Büyükada, Istanbul, in 2023–2024, in a reflexive conversation with each drawing. Known for her work across various mediums such as drawing, video, performance, sculpture, and installation, Eviner, with this book, invites readers to explore her creative universe through her drawings and the accompanying texts that she crafted as if conversing with them. Published in two separate language editions, Turkish and English, the book is enriched by Eviner’s design concept and Ruslan Abasov’s design. Lying at the centre of Inci Eviner’s creative practice, drawing, for the artist, serves both as a means of expressing the unconscious and a tool for exploring her concepts. It is a space where the interplay between the conscious and unconscious can unfold, revealing the complex entanglement between the societal and the psychic. It also serves as the foundation upon which she discovers and develops new ideas, forms, and spatial constructs. Rooted in this foundation and continuously evolving with a boundless visual language, her work questions and challenges the forms of social, historical, and discursive representations and the underlying norms behind them. In Behind It Something Intimate, Eviner engages in a dialogue with her drawings and expands the multi-layered world that shapes them in a textual space that she shares with the readers.

Behind It Something Intimate brings together a selection of İnci Eviner's drawings and the poetic texts she wrote between 2023 and 2024. Known for her multidisciplinary practice—including drawing, video, performance, sculpture, and installation—Eviner invites readers into an intimate dialogue between image and word. Each text responds to a drawing, revealing the inner landscapes that inform her evolving visual language. Drawing lies at the core of Eviner's artistic process, serving both as a means of unconscious expression and a space for conceptual inquiry. Her lines trace the tensions between the personal and the collective, the psychic and the political. Through this artist's book, she extends her creative process into a shared textual space, inviting readers to engage with her world. Enriched by the artist's own design concept, the book explores how drawing can challenge dominant forms of social, historical, and discursive representation.
