WORKS ON THE PAPER - Previous Home Series

Works on the Paper - Previous Home Series by Göknil Gümüş Sungurtekin is an emotional exploration of memory and time. Inspired by a childhood moment—when her sister cycled and drew a circle in the garden of their family home—the series blends nostalgia with philosophical depth. The painting, titled "Previous Home Series," emerges from an old photograph of the house on Yalıboyu Street and merges with the concept of "Tolstoy’s Bicycle," symbolizing the idea that learning is a lifelong journey and joy persists no matter what. This series encapsulates the freshness and enthusiasm of youth, carrying its joyful energy forward with every brushstroke.
