In old ruins, things that can not be understood are left unattended. But those useless objects have been liberated from their original functions. Rather, I find romance from this time. The reconstruction of scenes that required imagination in the work would have been a living routine of that era just a few decades ago. Everyone will have a faint memory of the space in which they stayed. It is because the recognition of the space occurs through the activity of human and the memories according to it. In fact, the memory is a device which defines the identity of the individual, so the loss of memory is directly related to the loss of the identity of the individual. I am aiming to restore space that is destroyed by developmentalism. When we lose space, we lose the psychological content of the space as well as the space - human relationship. In this way, we will come back to our artistic life again when we find something that has been lost and lost in our lives by necessity, or while we realize that we have erased and erased it between ourselves and ourselves.
