About The Artwork

Recently, I've been intrigued by photographs that point to different types of humanity. Sometimes it can be an archaeological dig I did in my own family album, sometimes it can be a photograph of an old or new situation I found. My excavation area is sometimes family albums, sometimes the internet, sometimes printed magazines or newspapers. Each of us has very special moments in our lives that remain in our photographic memory even after years have passed. I worked on this picture from a photo of my mother posing at a very young age, just before her marriage, with a gun and a pistol in hand. I think this is the only time in my mom's life that she's picked up a gun, and it's very special. Accordingly, my guess is that when the person in the picture looks at himself, he goes directly to other related memories of that moment. Special moments like this are a very powerful reminder. At the same time, anyone who looks at this painting anywhere in the world can get an interesting insight into the culture and place where the painting was drawn. I use quality paint and infrastructure in all my works, and artistic goals are prioritized rather than sales. It means a lot to me that you like my art and that it adds something to your life. Regards and greetings from Turkey.

I am a Turkish painter born in Istanbul and living in Aydın. While continuing my Civil Engineering education, I left there and studied Archeology and Art History. I work in painting mediums such as Oil Painting, Gouache, Oil Pastel and Acrylic. I have continued my art studies, which I started in high school, uninterruptedly until today. Although I am technically self-taught, I gained art culture and knowledge largely thanks to my education in Archeology and Art History. In my paintings, I generally use my albums consisting of my surroundings, old family photos, photographs I have taken, and photographs I have cut and collected from various publications over the years. My paintings are documents of my existence in this world, my perspective, and the experiences I have had so far. If the instant emotion it evokes in me when I look at any image is really sharp and strong, that image or emotion is a candidate to be reflected on the canvas. What the viewer gets is a unique feeling blended with their own memories and experiences. But inevitably there will be places where our worlds intersect in some way.
