Je suis désolé Painting

Okan provokes and polarises, using personalities and symbols that unite opposites in his eyes. Poverty meets wealth, cohesion meets exclusion; emotional blindness is compensated by colors and their sound; beloved or longed-for power instruments such as bank notes are stylized as symbols of oppression. Decisive for Sayan's art is also everyday life in the gastronomy; in bars, cafes and clubs. Strangers or known people in the crowd, architectural forms, food and drinks - a sheer infinite variety of inspirations and ingredients that are reflected in some of his works like a top note of cigar smoke, whiskey and lounge music. Not only works of art for the home, but also commissioned works for companies such as Renault, the BILD newspaper, Colostrum or Global Bridge from the hand of Sayan already decorate various offices and exhibition spaces in and around Munich. Even textiles for the fashion label "Bruce la Cruz" have already been refined by Okan Sayan and sold as exclusive individual pieces. After all, there are no limits to the imagination. Not for an artist like Okan Sayan. They may exist, but if you look at it more closely, most of them are really real only in our own minds. And just as mortal. Unlike art.
