The painter following the tradition is not interested in everyday reality. In his paintings that demand emotional communication, the story becomes an instrument. The image that glided through the darkness, invites the audience to embark on their own journey. Sometimes a small sapling, sometimes an empty bird's nest or a lantern guides them on the journey. While time is flowing in an endless loop, the painter is not interested in ever-changing images. He prefers to look at permanent values, regardless of keeping a record in history. He translates the cases related to human nature; love, loyalty, acceptance, rebellion and struggle into the language of painting with the most naked forms. Assc. Prof. MERYEM Uzunoğlu.
