Heykeltıraş / Sculptor
In the moment where the viewer and my art stand face to face with each other, I would very much prefer not to be there, standing next to the viewer as a shadow trying to communicate my own issues, I would instead like them to communicate with the piece and create a relationship of their own where they discover something about themselves and start an inner journey. In this context, you can say that I tend to like being the creator of form, a space for the viewers to tell their own stories instead of being a story teller.
