Let me continue to believe in art in its most beautiful, naïve way, rather than become part of an artificial social game. Will this mean living in a cave, as I have for the past twenty-two years? If only you knew how frightening visibility can be. Not because I don't want my work to be seen, but because of what being seen seems to demand: a fixed identity (given by the society-by others), a fixed fabricated signature that never changes (because you are expexted to speak one l

In 1990s Istanbul, whatever time I had left after university was often spent at art festivals, film screenings, exhibitions, concerts, and cultural events. I went to as many as I possibly could. I was surrounded by extraordinarily intelligent, curious people who seemed to know something about everything. Together, we watched, listened to, discussed—and discovered. The world reached us differently then. Before the internet turned everything into an endlessly filtered stream, w

The news around the world can feel deeply troubling, but I think that when we turn our eyes towards nature, we can somehow return to something older — something quieter, more essential, and perhaps closer to where we are meant to be. So I've painted this small oil painting of a rose again. A small attempt to return to something that simply exists, grows, and endures. I found myself searching for one absolute thing in the middle of an uncertain future. And once again, I turned

My solo showcase at Lüders Buchhandlung has now entered its final week. Over the past months, the shop window and the bookstore have been filled with various theme paintings. I am truly grateful for the wonderful response the collection has received. Several artworks have already found new homes, and each time one was sold, I replaced it with another painting so that visitors could continue to enjoy a full and evolving collection. If you haven't had the chance to visit yet, t

I am delighted to share that starting 5 June 2026, a selection of my paintings will be exhibited at: Lüders Buchhandlung & Antiquariat Heußweg 3320255 Hamburg / Germany To keep the exhibition dynamic and evolving, new paintings will be introduced every two weeks, offering fresh works and new perspectives throughout the exhibition period. I would be delighted if you stopped by to explore the exhibition with the books and experience these works in this inspiring setting. Thank

Stela with Ballplayer Monument Cotzumalhuapa Culture, Guatemala, c. 650–950 CE Because they remind me our core. Exploring distant histories and civilizations helps me step outside my own time and see the world with fewer biases (is it possible?). It allows me to feel less attached to fixed ideas imposed by others, more open to different perspectives, and more connected to something universal. I was a ballplayer too. What if I were a ballplayer who had lived back then? It seem

Two of my paintings, Injured Heart and Tiny Black Moons, have recently been published in Gulf Stream Magazine, Issue 38, May 2926. Injured Heart appears alongside a story by M.D. Smith, while Tiny Black Moons is paired with a text by Sarah Lawrence-Sandkvist. Seeing these works placed next to written narratives creates a quiet dialogue between image and language—one that doesn’t explain, but expands meaning through contrast and resonance. My practice often explores emotional

The bridges are symbols of connection—between neighborhoods, history, and people. To me, they are symbols of access, the will to unite. I'm not an urban sketcher, just an explorer willing to understand the mood of these settlements by observing their creativity—the choices they make while creating. A wooden bridge in Tokyo may be made from local timber, while Hamburg uses bricks formed from its river clay soil.. They are all unique, yet they are all bridges. Like us. We all s

I’m very happy to share that my oil painting Vapur has been published in County Lines , the literary journal of the Carolina Piedmont Writers Guild . The painting appears in their 2026 issue, Volume 13 , along with my artist bio. It’s an honor to be included in a journal that celebrates creative work across disciplines and highlights the rich artistic voices. I’m grateful to the editors and the Carolina Piedmont Writers Guild for welcoming visual art into their pages and fo

The recent show “Hamburg Zeigt Kunst” was a remarkable success, and I feel deeply grateful for the experience. This journey was not just about the event itself, but about the people who made it possible — Unleash Creativity Club , founded by my mentor and coach, Marc Scheff. From my life partner’s unwavering support to the incredible artists I had the honor to work with — especially the talented local creators I met along the way in Hamburg — every moment was meaningful. I al
