STEPHEN BEN RABBI AARON MEYER
(an object by Mutlu Çerkez)
1990
15.11.22–29.01.23

This nameplate was made by Mutlu Çerkez to put on the street wall of a North Carlton house I lived in.

I had previously told him that I understood Bram to be an acronym, standing for Ben (son of) Rabbi Aaron Meyer.

At around that time he changed his surname, which until then was Hassan.

Çerkez means Caucasian, from the Caucasus mountains.
