UNDER THE LIGHT Stainless Steel / 65x45x40 (cm) - 215x180x120 (cm) / 09-2015 “Amarcord” (a m’arcord) means "I remember" in the Italian dialect in the Emilia-Romagna region, spoken in Rimini where the director, Federico Fellini was born. This movie dated 1973 has a poetic description from the point of view of a child, of fascism which looms over the country and joy of being a child. "Under the light" inspired by the Fellini's film tries to emphasize that the little person looks for hope and light even in the darkest times. A person buried himself in the dark and a little girl who sees the beauty being in the light… P.S.: Stainless Steel that is used in sculpture is a rich chromium alloy and it resists even sea water for long time. However, the sculpture can be exhibited indoor or outdoor, it needs a little change on its electrical instolatian. If you prefer to exhibite it outdoor, you should specfy it before shipping. The man figure is not welded on lamppost so can be exhibited separately in a different corner.

Turkey
Born in 1978 in Ankara, Iskender Giray was brought up in various parts of Turkey because of his father’s profession. His family finally moved to Istanbul where he spent most of his youth and settled as an artist. He was always eager to see the differences and common points of cultures. Since early ages, his life was full of arts and crafts. However, he studied his second passion in the university as many artists in Turkey who found themselves in a socio-economic dilemma implemented by the conjuncture that force them to take another profession than art for a “safe” future life. Giray choose physics, the knowledge of the universe. He studied in Physics Engineering at the Istanbul Technical University and he believed that the knowledge of physics taught him different ways of observation and ways of putting different data to get a new solution. In 2006, he decided to commit himself only to the arts and quit not only master degree in Physics but also his corporate job. Since then, he has been collecting data to create his artistic practice, storing every piece of information only to transform it into a new work. Except for his works exhibited, the artist who is also known for his iron sculptures, named as "Guerrilla Sculptures", that he placed on his own discretion in the streets of Kadıköy , the region where he lives, in Turkey. He likes to use bronze, steel and iron materials in his works. In some of his sculptures, he views the anamorphic technique as an additional dimension for expression. He generally constructs his works on a story and most of his works are focused on matters such as "Nature" or "Social Injustice”. As an artist he is always in the desire of creating a new world without giving up his own.
