Every living thing exists, develops, changes and disappears aesthetically for a certain period of time at the micro and macro level. With each extinction comes a new existence or existences. In these paintings, the values of our own bodies, those outside of us and those with us, moments and memories, time are emphasized by making use of nature, the universe and micro visuals. The artist reinterprets visual forms based on his research and experience. He creates his oil painting work by creating and composing his design.

In these works, the artist uses lace from the dowry of his wife, the master painter Göknil Gümüş Sungurtekin, to show that the material not only has an aesthetic value, but also carries traces of traditional history and personal memories. The lace, combined with the artist’s colors, creates a new story on the canvas. The lack of female figures in Ottoman Turkish painting, combined with the artist’s visuals of moments and memories, creates a new story.

ART GOOD PROJECT

I benefited from the old postcards of the architectural and urban spaces in Istanbul. I photographed new photographs from almost the same point of view of these places in Istanbul. I shrunk these photos and made them into handmade scrap stamps on these postcards. On the back surfaces of these cards I used old and original historical handwritings. These writings were manuscripts written by people living in Istanbul for celebration purposes. I have thus brought about the change of these urban spaces over the years and the manuscripts of the people who lived in the past. My aim was to pay attention to the disappearance of the values of these people and places.
