İsmail Şimşek was born in 1977, in İzmir. He graduated from the Department of Sculpture of the Faculty of Fine Arts at Dokuz Eylül University as the best student. He received his master's degree in Art and Design from the same faculty and university. He works in his own studio in Izmir. Ismail Şimşek, mention residential and global norms and in that sense, he deals with psychological stance of crowd, enforcement, community upon the individual. The contents of his works include; reaction/non-reaction, present (current times), capitalism, sexuality, eroticism, politics and the idea of ruling as the continuing concept of exploitation of individual as it was seen in the past. It also includes the implications of these terms.. The forms of Ismail Simsek produced last period focuses person referring the human being both beyond from the source and to source and his space and the experience of time. Ismail uses the structure of the form as a psychological phenomenon in his works. The forms of Ismail indicating the presence of the statue continue their existence as interlocked and like a cocoon composed of nodes cannot be separated from each other. The knitting or binding action can be read as a kind of acts of self-destruction trying to lose their permits until the last node. It refers to the chaos for those who know the way for the losers of the universe. Each node exists in a single body as apart from each other and a whole. The nodes representing the multiplicity of the world and the presence of a holistic form as unity in nature builds re-”bond” on one language itself and “I” would not. The rope used as material/medium is a metaphor as the idea of a kind of bond for Simsek. Bond and form thoughts represents spiritual immanent metaphysically by meaning of the semantic. The faith is a node thrown into the human and after all it likes to be searched not to be available.
