A self-taught artist and musician. Music never became my profession, yet it constantly resonates within me. I transfer this resonance onto my canvases. At the moment, my studio is based in Antalya, Turkey. I worked in a publishing house specializing in graphic design and other visual communications such as advertising, photography, illustration, and art. Since then, Graphic Arts has been my great passion. As a publisher, I spent 12 years producing textbooks on design, typography, form, composition, color harmony, and more. Between 2003 and 2012, I frequently served as a juror for international advertising and graphic design contests and festivals. Since 2022, art has become my primary occupation. My practice is situated in contemporary figurative painting and explores states of transition, suspension, and inner concentration. I am interested in the moment before action — the tension that arises in silence, just before the first sound, the first gesture, or the first decision. Musical instruments in my work function not as tools for performance, but as structures that shape the body and attention. I work with silence as an active condition — a space of restraint, duration, and transformation — where movement is suspended and inner alignment replaces expression. Participant of solo and group exhibitions in Serbia, Turkey, China (Beijing) and Russia. Member of the Eurasian Union of Artists since 2025. The artworks are held in private collections in Germany, France, Italy, Russia, and the United States.
