Art for me is kind of researching everyday elements sur¬rounding our life, objects which we use and live with and finding the marks of existing and absent minded human behaviour in nature and the manmade surroundings. Things which are surrounded by facts and look like immutable in everyday life, in human relationships and the relationships between user and an object. It is giving endless source to find meanings and play with old things in new surroundings and vice versa.
Many of my works have a different beginning pattern, but the similarity lies in the conceptually derived content. This affects the final expression, specially the materials, which mainly have a metaphorical meaning.
