Dijital çalışmalarında sanatı felsefe, biyoloji ve geometriyle harmanlayan sanatçı, genellikle kutuplaştırılan doğallık ve dijitallik konseptlerini aynı kefeye yerleştirerek alternatif ve özgün görme şekilleri yaratmayı amaçlıyor. Doğal formlar ve bilgisayar ağlarının fraktal geometrileri arasında paralellikler kurarken sadece doğal-beşeri ayrımı değil; somut-soyut, statik-kinetik, fizik-fizikötesi ve canlı-cansız ayrımı da yıkılıyor. Böylelikle ufuk çizgisine, deniz manzaralarına, göçmen kuşların hareketlerine ya da zamanın geçişine yeni bir gözle bakma şansı sunuyor.
Bakış Açıları serisi ise hayatta yaşananlara ve baktığımız yönlere yeni boyut katmak, değişik bir pencereden bakmak, değişik bir açıdan görmek ile ilgili bir araştırmadır. Bu açıların bildiğimiz üç boyuttan daha fazla olabileceği ve sonsuzluğa uzanabileceğine dair bir görselleştirmede bulunur…
Nereden baktığın, baktığın ‘şey’i değiştirir mi? sorusunu sorar.
Perspectives series, adds new layers to the directions we look at and to the thing we go through in life, it is a research about different windows to look from, and to see from a different perspective. It makes a visualization that these perspectives can be much more than the 3D we know and they can reach to infinity. Asks the question of; Does the point you look from make a difference to what you look at?
