Artist Statement
We, as humanbeings, ascribe a symbolic meaning to everything related to the nature and we frequently use those meanings while reasoning. In the process of my artistic production, I aim to reverse the symbols underlying the images or minds regardless of the content, material or technique that I use. Therefore I think of discovering the new ways of reading the images by reflecting subjective and social queries. Power, potency, manipulation, nature, symbols, selection and the game. I aim to expand the images of the past and transfer the message by making the art-lover as an active participant of the process. All above is my main concern and desire which might also be thought as making the receptor reach to a catharsis and a free phantasy world.
