As soon as I realize that I am breathing, I am already in that area and then I do what I do without realizing it and without planning.

What are the things that play the most role for you being the person you are today?
Actually, every moment. The person I am today is the person who brings me closer to the person I will be tomorrow. Different than the person I was yesterday. Most importantly, I know what I wanted to know what I want. To realize that I have the power to achieve what I want to achieve what I want, never connects to molds.LNot to stay and walk in line with this belief, believing that what I want is unique to me.
Why do you think contradictions are important?
Very important! Because it is to encounter those contrasts that bring you closer to what you want. Everything has two ends. One of you can approach, make you happy, desire and want to. The other is the end that makes you unhappy, covered with fears and worries you don't want. I think every issue consists of two issues.
What's the Aran with YeniL?
Very good! I have two little girls, they are constantly renewed. We are all renewed. I don't believe in aging. I think I have been renewed every year. Time is not age, not old, it is something that integrates with renewal. You can't proceed without renewing, developing, changing. The way I want is a way open to innovations, because there is no end.
A piece that has always returned in the last time?
Moreno+2 - Deusa Do Amor. It is a completely random discovery.
Do you have a mantle that you remind yourself most often?
Mantram, Sanskrit, om Mani Padme Hum. Tibetan mantra. At the core of the mantra, there is a more holistic desire than personality. 108 times I say this mantra. I also love affirmations. This is my favorite “Everything is happening for me! Whatever happens is the best for me, even the things I think are bad! " We can also say to be thankful, and we can say mantra. "My God, I have a calmness to accept things I can't change, the courage to change what I can do, and wisdom me to grasp the difference." This is a prayer that I love.
What is the most extraordinary thing about you?
I'm not very domestic. Even though I don't look like that, I am very dominant. I can cook all day and clean the house, and that's enough for me. I love to be at home, to be with children, to collect the house, to organize. I think it's an unusual feature that I am more romantic and still believing in love.
What would you do if you were able to pierce a ban you know?
I would take my dog Max everywhere by plane!
If you should give up a color?
Grey! I don't like to stay in between. Either dark or bright for me! Yes or no. The feeling of staying in the purgatory makes me very much.
Who would it be if an artist from history would organize a party for you?
Marcel Duchamp. Because even playing chess can be with him. He doesn't have to do anything, I never tired.
A difficulty you think every artist should live?
There are many difficulties that every artist has and I think they are artists. I often read the biographies of the artists I love, and their lives are more of interest to me. What I read is always full of traumas, accidents, what happened to them, all of which are reflected in the works! I think there is no artist who has no difficulty! So it should be withdrawn, it's a good thing, so it's not a bad thing! Pain is the reason for everything! In Buddhism, if you can understand, it is said that every pain is a reason, as long as you do not suffer from depression. Pain should not turn into disease. I want to live long, I want to live long and well, thank God I have suffered the difficulties, I want it to evolve with beauty and goodness.
How from IstanbulL are you inspiring?
I was born and raised in Istanbul and studied in Mimar Sinan. I think that's the building of Istanbul with a beautiful view. I love Istanbul very much, it is very difficult to live and raise children, but it is very inspiring. Chaotic, unexpected, different from each other, full of surprises, being full of surprises, living in such a different city to live in such a big city and began to live a little too much and toxic. Even when you look at the plane, you see that there is no soil and greenery to be grounded. Still, I was born here, I'm glad I grew up here. I have plans to move these days, to Spain. When such plans were, Istanbul started to like it again. Missing Istanbul is also beautiful!
How do you want to deal with artL you understand?
I still don't understand, I haven't wanted to do anything else in my life. When I was 16, in high school, we had a music group, Punk group. At that time, when we were Beyoğlu, we played in the bars when there was Ortaköy. I always knew very well what I wanted. When designing the cassette covers, I noticed that I actually started the graphic design. At that time, we were doing skateboard, fanzines, while examining the Kaykay magazines, I entered into a little visual world. I decided that I didn't want to take the university exam. I never had a determination to work for the exam. I decided to enter the university with the talent exam. I did not fill out the university form, when I told my parents about the talent exam, "you don't have the talent!" They said. Then I won three universities, working for a month or two, it was difficult in the past, as well as 25 people were taking 25 people a year. When I graduated from Mimar Sinan, I became a little involved in the world of agency, and I always knew I didn't want to do anything like that. Now I'm here, just Painting I'm doing it.
How is your art for your lifeL has a function?
I don't see it like a job. Art is the flow of life for me. How to breatheL If it has a function, this is something like that for me.
Mimar Sinan University Faculty of Fine Arts and LondonL Impressed?
I've never been a very much educational -oriented person. I think that your experiences, experiences, people met and dreams are much more important. I was lucky, I studied a nice school, 6L I had an experience like England. However, I think it is not necessary for the artist to study a school. Writing poetry, philosophy, music, all art, Painting The same goes for. I also taught at the university. I have always tried to explain to the students that life outside the school is more important and the experience is more important. What you can get is limited, academics are usually teaching in schools in Turkey, life has nothing to do with itself. I think what we call a profession is not just about the lessons read at school. The job you do should not be limited. There is no need for a career plan that you have established by doing something today and developing it tomorrow. Because tomorrow is a very different day, a lot of different professions come out. Mobile phone came out with no plan, and now there is a metavers, maybe new new channels will be released in the future. The school sounds very limiting to me. Even though I love my school very much, this love has something to do with sociality, and it was a school in a location in the city and culture art. I knew my friends there in very talented and different visions. Many people I know are also the insects they readLHe's doing something other than Um.
How's the preparation processL is working?
I guess I don't have a preparation. It would be right to talk about my daily routine. I get up too early in the morning, 06:30, sometimes 05:00. I definitely take time for myself. I am definitely meditating. As soon as I realize that I am breathing, I am already in that area, I am balanced, I do what I do without realizing it after being balanced and without planning.
What does the street mean to you?
Street life itself. I was doing graffiti when I was in college. I used to paint the excavations, I even liked their thrown in the trash. In fact, everything is temporary, all the works are temporary. Even a church for centuries to build can burn with a lighter. I think the feeling that people see and left on peopleL The important thing. We had a discussion in a walk with the children. I like to paint the streets, I still love it. My eldest girl, because she is not sure whether the jobs I do will appeal to everyone's taste, “Your pleasure may not be the same as everyone's pleasure, the streets are a public space and it is not right to paint the street.” said. My little girl said, "My mother can paint where she wants." said. My eldest daughter said, "If the artist can make his art in his field, the streets are everyone!" he replied. Frankly, I'm in my dilemma right now. Nevertheless, when I was in such a dilemma, I stopped doing business without permission to the street.
Sometimes the street can be the place where no one belongs to anyone. How in the working dynamics of the found materialsL has a place?
I've always loved trying different materials and coincidences. When I opened my first exhibition, I had a place on a wall of a friend's bar. Now it sounds very simple when I think, I do it at an hour, but I couldn't plan it at that time, I could paint it, I found parquet pieces while walking on the street, they were all different from each other, I carried them home and painted them. I opened my first exhibition with such parquet pieces, they were very nice. I also love the effect of materials on different surfaces. Paper, cardboard, I like painting any box, finding and painting any drawer. Everything you find on the street is free, but the canvases and ingredients are very expensive, and he was attracted to me obviously. My friends came to visit me for a while they came to take a break. “Pınar Bak Door! Pınar Bak Cabinet! " They stacked home. Nowadays, not that much, it is all a big job. Nowadays I work with more canvas.
How in the works of child naiveL finds a place?
I get more inspiration from children. First of all, from my own children. I worked a lot with the children in need. He also impressed me in a good sense. They are actually the freedom I want to be. Until this age, when it comes to a lot of molds and consciousness, it is inevitably reflected in those paintings. I have almost reached their freedom right now, now they look at mine and interpret themselves. Since they went to school for a few years, their freedom was a little carved, unfortunately at schoolL Painting will be taught. Our essence is actually to do such freedom. I'm trying to reflect my own essence rather than doing something. I want to make people happy with the pictures I do or what I do. The more I am close to myself, the better I think I am, I don't have a problem to be liked, but I like to make you feel good.
In order to draw as much as a child, a serene mind is necessary. What's thisL you succeed?
Meditation!
There is a wild and chaotic side of your work, can you open it a little bit?
Perhaps it is a little bit to contradict myself, maybe I will tell you by pulling a line after a while. I love that fluctuation and that contradiction. I do it without planning, the fact that coincidences turn into beauty (beauty for me) is coincidental. The people in my paintings are not actually characters, or monsters or boots, there are things that are not clear, they are actually souls.
