About The Artwork

Istanbul Tales-7 90x60cm(35.4x23.6 inch) From the series of Istanbul Tales “İstanbul always pin her name high up among the names of the most beautiful cities. Witnessing her green shade is disappearing as she is constantly being transformed into concrete makes me, as an Istanbuler living in the city for half a decade, nothing but feel deeply sorry. Whenever you climb up any one of her seven hilltops in hope of watching her breath taking landscape, her silhouette squeezed by blocks of concrete that harbour just a piece of green is the city’s only landscape that you experience on a heavy contrast against the hundreds of magnificent buildings standing for centuries along with narrations, stories, epics that of and about her were told. Animals, our lovely friends, who color up our lives by shades and arouse humane feelings such as love, tender, mercy and sharing within us play the main part in The Serial of Istanbul Tales. The Serial consists of visual envisagements aiming simultaneously to entertain and provoke thoughts on environment via childish and peaceful imaginery fictions. Remarking the destruction of nature and expanding the awareness for preserverance of the environment are Istanbul Tales’ main purposes. Oil paint effect are applied to the photographs in order that they as well produce poetic and artistic influence as move emotions. Pomegranate that is observed in some pieces of the Serial symbolizes plentitude, power, beauty, fertility, sacred tree, kindness, instance of the beauty God created, the fruit of eden etc. in mythology and various religions and cultures.” Limited Edition artworks are sent as printed on 100x70cm Hahnemühle Fine Art paper with 5cm white border.

Born in Istanbul in 1961. Working as a graphic designer and photographer in his agency for many years, he has been interested in the artistic side of photography since 2008 and continues his studies with digital-collage photography technique in Istanbul. SOURCE OF INSPIRATION: NATURE "Undoubtedly, nature has a magnificent aesthetic and a perfect design that integrates with its rhythm and harmony. In the cycle of daily hustle and bustle, I think that the traces of the unique beauties of nature, which form a whole with our thousand kinds of flowers, beetles and cute animal friends, disappear with each passing day, erased from the memory of mankind. Therefore, I hope that by presenting the images I have often captured in nature to the public's view, accompanied by a strong aesthetic emphasis and a visual feast, people will revive the magic of nature in their souls and care about it again. Let's not forget that we're not going it is the responsibility of all of us to best preserve this priceless legacy and carry it to future generations." ART:  "Although I am a photographer educated in analogue photography and respectful to it, I would like to make it clear that for the surrealistic pieces I made in last ten years in digital. I am impressed by Max Ernst, Rene Magritte and especially Salvador Dali, as they are the forth comming icons of surrealism. Especially in my abstract artworks, I believe that the contrast of light-shadow in my manipulated photographs, the clear-flu field, the fore-background elements, put a surplus value on my work in terms of size. Moreover, the visual integrity perceived from a distance to my works, which has different meanings in the details when examined closely, is another originality of my works. My work consists of different subjects, from the streets of Istanbul to its historical monuments, from various cities to museums, from different objects to nature. My works are digital collage works produced with a wide artistic identity, ranging from abstract and conceptual and sometimes minimalist style to surrealism." "I wish that the light within you will shine forever and that the love of art in your soul will never be lost."
