PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

From "Fan Page" Series

Social media and intense internet culture have been the basis of my work lately. I watch and reflect on the reflection of the "internet culture" that has entered our lives in recent years, from every aspect of our daily life. I observe that users, for whom there is no age limit, start to create their own internet languages, and opposite and extreme processes such as admiration, liking and hating turn into very fast reactions over instant sharing. While social media culture forms the basis of this series, my works come from visual pools that are directly accessible to the public on social media, where access is much easier, open to communication by every user and can be stored by all, and where screenshots can be taken. On the other hand, I am trying to bring these easily accessible images to the picture by making collages, a technique that has been used for centuries. The "Fan Page" series first began to take shape through my sketchbooks. Observing in the images I have encountered and recorded, how sports bring people together, how they stand side by side as one of the results of being a party, how different economic classes can be on the same side; It brought with it the information that "Fan Page" has a different ground than social media observation. This series includes many techniques of painting such as drawing, watercolor, oil painting; this diversity of material actually tries to define the process itself: first encounter on social media, hiding, looking again and creating a new language. While thinking about this partnership on the internet with billions of users, downloading it to the sports ground arises from my own user perspective. In fact, 'sport', which is not limited to its audience, can reach everyone in one way or another with a channel; It brings together spiritual triggers and recipes such as organizing, standing side by side, being against, taking sides, creating or sharing a common language.
