German-based artist Sakir Gökçebag has been doing some pretty amazing work lately and has now turned to everyone's favorite household [bathroom product](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/krazy-klean-walla) as the medium for his latest installations.

Sakir has decided to use toilet paper to create some creative [wall installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-time) in his show entitled 'Translayers.' The show consists of various rolls of toilet paper hung upon a white wall and crafted into unique designs just by unrolling the paper. Some of his installations involve large quantities of [toilet paper rolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forevr-roll), while others only involve a few rolls.

There is also a large tower positioned in the center of the exhibit that contains sheets of toilet paper made to appear almost drape-like. Sakir Gökçebag has put on several installations, but this one is a very clever use of a very commonly used product.
