Sobre el Artista

I was born in Istanbul in November 1963. Having an innate interest in drawing I left the high school and started working in advertisement agencies while also accepting commissions for illustrations. Later on, I finished high school as an external student and I was accepted by the Advertisement Graphics Department of Marmara University Applied Fine Arts Faculty, from which I graduated. I abandoned my post-graduate studies to establish a boutique advertisement agency together with a friend, which continued until about ten years ago. Since then I only did illustration works on commission without direct involvement in advertisement business. Meanwhile I drew three comic strips. About five years ago I decided to embark on an endeavour to express my thoughts with a philosophical approach in illustrative graphics style, resulting in the present series of paintings. Now I am İllustrative Painting works on Human and Geometry. I attended the Florence Biennale in 2019. In 2021, I attended the Arte Laguna Prize2020.21 Venice exhibition (Network). I will attend the Barcelona Art Fair and the Basel Biennale in 2021.
