Mert Ates

My artistic practice often revolves around themes of humanity, memory, and culture. While rooted in traditional
materials and techniques, my work has gradually expanded toward new media, reflecting the evolving nature of my artistic process. Having gained sufficient experience in conventional methods, I began to explore alternative forms such as short films and AI-based programs. These experiences led me to fully integrate new media into my practice, allowing me to connect past traditions with contemporary artistic approaches. As an artist, my aim is to continuously refine my ideas and perspectives while deepening the artistic knowledge and perception that support them. By combining traditional disciplines with experimental practices, I seek to create Works that not only reflect my inner world but also question broader human experiences.
