quakes. While it has been studying on the wand with dif-ferent propositions, which is consisting of one single ob-jects concluding with three-items, objective and culturalmemory occured.Objective mind formed within the triplesystematics reached us as possiblity of power or stagesof hidden power. At the same time, it has been describedas layers of enmity and hostility.(4) When Poseidon wasaccrued with being the commander of the seas; r st of allwe went to the sky, after to the earth and then to the sea.
Thus, rstly, he would be the god of freshwater and thenthe god of water of earth. Poseidon also honored with thename Phytalmios which means the god of vegetation.This time, trident is a magic wand which involved allresources. (5) Poseidon throws his trident to the Saty-ros to protect daughter of Danaos (Amymone) who is theking of Argos . The scepter penetrates the body of Saty-ros and it sticks into a rock. Amymone get thirsty. Shelistened to Poseidons order and pulled out The Trident.Then the rock starts to leaking water from these threeholes and comprises a water fount. According to Charles,there is a tough and virile action of this scepter. At theend of this provacative act, the water occurs.
The objective memory is enriched with the transition toneolitic age -as being an age of production- from hunterand gatherer way of life. Describing of Trident withseals which also a references to private property of

The brain is the house of memory which representsmans inner perception and phenomenon. However, theformation, organization, protection of existence consistsof the external dimensions. (1) Jan Asmann empha-sizes the social and cultural framework as external di-mension and denes them as mimetic, objective, commu-nicative and cultural ssues. Cultural memory in termsof memory belonging to object and convection of mean-ing creates the main theme with the tendecy of chasingthe traces of trident. Man nds himself surrounded bythings that are founded by themselves. They stressesto reections on themselves, their past, commitment totheir ancestors, in other words, highlights the index of
time. This journey comes over to communicative and mi-metic memory, by going beyond the main themes, as well.Particularly,transformation of symbols and signs to thesymbolism is inevitable. This transformation make upbuilding process of places that are created in the memo-ries. It is, in a way, an exchange of what is abstract to theconcrete one. The Concrete becomes abstract by hidingthe abstract concept and abstract becomes concrete.
Content of symbol and signication depends on time andspace that its used. Qualit ative objects plays a key rolein the world of symbols. They are the key elements of per-sonication and identication. Qualitative objects createspurpose. They give up being a medium and becomes anaim on his own. Going beyond the identication, they aretelling function of identity and part of its biography whichinvolved characterics of it. In this context, trident asa visual and formal creation of language, is a quantierobject and while it was carrying us to an abstract, moral-didactic idea, it is reached us to a general concept as well.
Sea god Poseidon talks with anger and gets into action.(Od. V, 291 vd)
Thereon he gathered his clouds together, grasped his tri-dent, stirred itround in the sea, and roused the rage of every wind thatblows tillearth, sea, and sky were hidden in cloud, and night sprangforth outof the heavens. Eurosla Notos, howling Zephyros andBoreas blew with wrestling .
Homeros transmits us Poseidons duty and characther -istics with the frame of objective mind. In HesiodossTheogonia, the son of Kronos and Rhea, absolute com -mander of sea Poseidons trident is a qualitative object;a symbolic representation of waters, seas and earth-

Mesopotomia,(It is rst place of nutrition production, ag-riculture) reect as manifestation of cultural memory.Parallelism of its formation with scythe and pitchfork canbe explained within the framework of the agriculturalsymbolism. trident is also a sign of lighting as a qualierobject of a god which can not be identied in different re-gions. It has some paralellism with mythical narrativesbelonging to Assyrian origin. J. E gives a broad placesto Pail Diels proposal of trident and describes his ownproposition within the framework of the theory of eth -ics against the logical proposition. Trident represents
three sins which consists of three vital impulsion of food.Food and storage which transforms to property, wealthand authority; reproduction which turns to enthusiasm;sanctify and evolution which turns to pride(6)
At the same time, It is basic form of life: It is a reection ofPast, Present, Future within the representation of Birth,Life, Death . Statement of to be three in one is a fre-quently used fact in Mitologia. Three-Fractional maliceor replicas of diabolic trinity. Three-headed hell dog Ker-
beras and three-formed Hekate which is a godness belong-ing to Anatolia and resembles Artemis from Efessos alsoincludes in Hesiodoss Theogonia. In this time, Its three-formed is recommended as broodmares, shewolf, she dogby Azra Erhat and it implies Hekate and Artemiss pa-ralelism of girl,woman and moon godness . its implicationas three-bodied statue attracts interest as well. (7)
Roman retiarius gladiators who ght with equipment en-hancements of the sea and sailors use their trident dur-ing the war. This weapon as the representation of pow-er, provides a long-range ght to retiarus due to the longlenght of it. Long lenght of the scepter refers to celesti-ality and the celestial divinity of scepter. (8) Thus, theirchances to defeat their enermy ()It can be seen as a me -dium of impulse of human beings for establishing sover-eignity on distance. mirmillo Gladiators who ghts withtheir swords against Retiarus can be dened within theframework of individual heroism. It is a confrontationof celestiality and indiviual courage. As stated by Cirlot,there is power sign that represents patriarchal poweragainst this indiviual courage. This can be evaluated as
an absolute victory within the framework of spiritualunderstanding of pater familias in Rome.The Trident is located cultural memory of Hindu and Bu-dhist. Its proximity to the sun disk evokes an antecedentsymbol of sun. James Hall mentions tridents representa-tion of lighting in Buddhism in his Dictionary of Symbols.In Buddha faith, trident associates with Buddhizmsthree-Ore which represent Buddha, Law and Public. It iswand of Hindu God Shiva as well. Each spear tip,three-forks represents three features of nature: Creativity andDestructiveness securement. These desire, action andwisdom can be expressed as allusion. (10) It representforce against devil power as an Shamanistic ritual object.In this context, it can be identied with true knowledge,true faith, true conduct. In fact, Trident is a hiyerofanithat means it is a Manifestation of Being Holly.
Our encountering with this symbol n monotheism as anobjective qualier of devil, also leads to the creation ofa memory of mankind towards to pagan symbols. How-ever, it does not create deviation in semantic representa-tion This representation is diffucult and it can be evalu -ated within the framework of dualism.The faculty of producing meaning of people who can
produce,think and also think about what did he thoughtcan be seen within the tridents intercultural journeyinto the geography of the world. It can be wittnesedthe exchange between the abstract and concrete. Thus,shaping of thought into the Trident and transformationof Trident a spatial harmony to a thought may be an is -sue for to discuss and explain.

Preliminary investigations,stages of creation make up basic disci-pline of Halil Akdenizs art during the production process of his
works. The formation process of the works which are emerging
with discipline could be designated as a quest which comes with
disipline.
Research discipline, process and quest become continuous with
process; demostrate the quality of his work both technically and
conceptually. The work contains an object that are studied. It has
been seen that not only object but also the work are tried to resolve
again in the contemporary context. The classic frame of works are
replaced by structure ongoing with various reconstructions. This
structure, also supported by search, can be seen as a transition
gate to the following stages of setting up. The object has been in -
volved a new process af ter a mean time passing with reseaching,
approving, and concluding with assembling of work to the oor.
Presented to the audience who witnessed the work of art is new
perceptions reconstructed symbols. There are four main topics to
be addressed when it comes to works of the Akdeniz: Universality
of subject and its conceptual manifestation in the work of art, in-
tegration of conceptual process to the technic, re-construction of
the audience after the completion of everthing...
Majority of the aforementioned objects are being created by sym-
bols, letters, signs of ancient cultures which are carefully inves-
tigated by the Akdeniz.These signs were being used by different
cultures with various indicators throughout the ages and both ge-
ographies and cultures have their own language as well. All these
have contributed to ascending of his works to the concept of time.
As pointed out in an interview with the artist, the letter which
is frequently used in his works was produced by Greeks, at the
same time point out the happiness as being f of felix and today
it implies alternative energy in modern physics and abstract con-
cepts in modern mathematics. t indicates that how signs can be
travelling between eras. The artist explores this journey with key
signs and reveals them with his works. Universality created by
perception of cultures that the sign strolls around. This univer-
sality will be processed to work as manifestation of past, present
and future. For example, use of letter with the peace symbol
shows reckoning of signs by themselves with past,future,presentbut at the same time, t has been shown that how two signs which
have as if two separate signied can interact with each other in a
modern platform. Thus,there is a process comes from past to the
present and its ow of future is provided.
Conceptual function of the artists works should be considered in
conjunction with the technique of works of art. Indeed, same as
the conceptual continuity of the subject is studied.
Technically, it has been shown an effort to export with enforcing
the facilities of art work. Works register a constructive impact in
terms of material and technique. Technique only is not very close
to the content of constructivism. There isnt any sketch process in
his works. Signs frequently used by artists which are the reminis -
cent of ancient marble colors, white, green, red are assembled at
the same moments with the act of painting each stages of works
that produced stay faithfull to process. Thus, signs that are used
with the process by civilizations, they implies their own ctions.
which implies that their ctions, however, depending on the art -
ists process continues with ction created. Here time ceases to be
in issue. Because sign is neither in past, nor xed at present any
longer. A transparent image is generated between work and image
with wooden blocks.
It has been seen that the artist developed much more his process,
set up, space problem in his latest works in 2012 named Signs
of Culture. I also tried to exlain above. The wand of Poseidon, the
god of sea in Greek mythology, is placed in each works with the
size of 28 x 20 cm. Poseidon is called with the title of enosigalos-
consultive, eradicator-. He replaced the wand in his works as a
symbol of power. Apart from that, the wand used by shamans as a
protector of evil spirits and also a sign used in agriculture which is
an important mainstray in Anatolia ,it has some similarities with
the wand of Poseidon. All these are some of cultural samples at -
tract the attention of artist. This wand had brought from the past
by the artist, can be symbols of cultures carried out technical
changes in order to transport to the future. The artist combined
technical and conceptual statement by xing the unit forms one
by one. These are open to interpretation and re-construction and
at the same time they are resolutions of the current era and mod-
ern consciousness as being the study of cultural analysis just like
Akdenizs previous works are entitled as Laws (Prohibitions) are
Endangered(2008): t can be interpreted as evaluation of concept
of superior and the reality of it. In this way, works that occured
with artists the investigation of past, concluded with instant pro-
duction of him and it is presented to a new process in contempo-
rary times with setting up the auidence. These works are repro -
duced as many times as you wish, their places can be changed, the
choice of colors that can be done to provide these works
if you want to know what is evoken by these works, maybe youll
need to have information about the icons used by Akdeniz. In ad-
dition, it s the fact that these icons knowingly or unknowingly in-
volves our ordinary lifes.
As a result, it can be said that Halil Akdeniz create universal
awareness by digging up the history. He also tries to setting up for
innity and timelessness of cultural sign and wants to partipate
the audience in it.
