ARTIST STATEMENT

The relation between man and the cosmos of which he is a part motivates my artworks. During his life, man attains and develops the ability to understand and process information. The tools, scriptures and rituals that he creates and that surround him allow him to organize what he has observed. In this context, I present man as both a material and intellectual existence. I attempt to find the presence of these two inseparable existences in the reality in which we live and function every day and present our daily life in the context of the unimaginable processes that have been taking place since the beginning of the universe. I want to emphasize that our everyday reality is the reality described by science.
