I am a Turkish-American multimedia artist.  I create video, installation, sculpture, photography, theater, painting and print drawing on a range of present-day issues and cultural and historical references.

I create to peruse myself and evoke a form of consciousness.  With each story I tell, I aim to start a communication through which I meet with my viewer, and other viewers meet within the space art creates, dissolving the separation between us, and across time, distance and culture.

I create imaginary worlds that help conjure unrealized possibilities. In my art, I use a soft voice, almost an understatement with silences, and pauses which create spaces of ambiguity where the viewer can escape from the limitations and complexities of a well-defined subject. By presenting a mere hint of the story, I evaluate the possibility of art to provoke seeking for emotions. Through the act of revealing or concealing, similar to a fenced garden which partly obstructs the view, the viewer stays longer to find out what is hidden behind. This also empowers them to imagine and make their own aesthetic choices and personal interpretations.
