I am interested in showing the difficulty and discomfort in fully understanding a person. I leave my subjects incomplete to highlight their limitations, as well as my own inability to see the subject beyond the influence of myself.

I am an artist who is thoroughly fascinated by the clashes in the visual culture of developing cities between urban/rural, and traditional/modern elements. My painting practice is focused on creating and reinterpreting snapshots of urban life such places, especially Istanbul, where I have grown up. I am interested in elements of my architectural practice into my paintings. This involves both focusing more on my "process"- something that was highly emphasized in my architecture education- and also bringing in perspective drawings and architectural collages into painting as a means of capturing the dynamics of city life that form my subject matter.

My "Reflection" work is a reaction to a career of manipulating images and sounds. After struggling to find a way to create truly unique video art, I went to see a film by a director whose work I had previously found difficult to follow. I noticed sitting down the row was a painter I admired. At that moment I made a conscious choice to watch the film as a painting. It was an amazing experience, filled with meaning and metaphor. Realizing what an effect one's frame of mind has on how the human brain processes information. I ran home, pulled a painting out of a frame on my wall and mounted the monitor to the frame.

My pictures are about relationships. I am trying to fill the role of a muse. I invite women to sit for portraits because I find them attractive. Some characters appear once while others occur multiple times. Women become replaceable and interchangeable. Subjects have plump faces, flowing hair and big eyes. Some of them look as if they just fell out of a painting at the Met. The pictures place women on pedestals, glorifying yet objectifying them. The poses are awkward and elegant. Their gaze is inviting yet passive.

My work blurs the boundaries of the two and three-dimensional through various techniques and materials. Seemingly flat lines and forms protrude into space. Caught in this spacial ambiguity, the starkly silent, yet distinctly present characters appear aware of their odd predicament. Devoid of context and stripped of external identity, they are portraits of souls - ageless, anonymous, and solitary. Their longing stares serve as a mute communication from which a distinct visual and psychological intimacy emerges.
