Art View

For an artist, his art is the whole of his life. For me, this is the case; It is formed by resisting the chaos, chaos and cultural conflicts that feed them, and perceiving them as a complete silhouette. As a young artist, my art is against all these negative events; It is the “utopian world” that is my own creation. Wrong urbanization, the injustices and ugliness in our lives and all the good facts on the other hand put us in a complete dilemma. What we need to see and what we don't need to see where we live?

My view of art, which I based on the solid foundations of the 15th century Renaissance, was formed by taking reference from the painting styles, compositional understanding and color use of Cézanne and Kandinsky, who were the initiators of Abstract art. It is a strong spatial phenomenon that I especially want to create in the visuals I create. Landscape sections and architectural drawings that I use in creative spaces both create contrast and aim to provide the audience with an intellectual motivation. The descriptive sections I took from nature and the architectural drawings I used aim to present the current dimension of urbanization to the audience by presenting the natural and the artificial together. The nature, which is a prisoner of mechanics and stuck in monotonous structures, is the subject I want to explicitly mention in my paintings. The spaces I create have to be close to abstract in terms of providing conceptual depth, but they are not completely abstract in order to offer various clues to the audience. Especially in my latest works, nature consists of frozen spaces. Its purpose is to show the divisions created by urbanization, of spaces that are stuck with urbanization, on nature. Sometimes there are scenes where mechanics, structures and sometimes nature prevail. My primary goal is to create and feel a sense of depth that will parallel the location with the architecture and perspective I use on my paintings.
