Original artwork description
The artist, who revives the censored female figures in Ottoman paintings with a historical perspective, completes the traces of the past with his paintings. He brings together the memories in lace, the traces of which are about to disappear today, with the traditional clothing of the Turkish woman. He creates a textured surface in his painting by using the lace in his wife Göknil Gümüş Sungurtekin's dowry. He brings together the similarities of the lace textures with the decorations, motifs and textures he had previously made on the walls. The artist combines the recent and distant history with his motifs, decorations, lace and figure selections by using the similarities with his own individual memories. He gives these materials a new life and meaning, saves them from the brink of oblivion and gives them a new expression with the transformative power of art. He creates a historical and aesthetic perspective with visuals consisting of moments and memories from the time we live in to the past.
