Art Perspective; Art is a means of expressing one's views, feelings, and thoughts by touching the inner world of individuals or societies and expressing them with different methods and techniques. Consequently, in my works, I think that the connection of man to nature has weakened, that when I look at what is happening around me, a monotonous life is observed, and that there is a mass of people disconnected from nature. There is a relentless war between nature and humans, and with the developing technology, they see themselves as the masters of nature, and with the increasing population, there is an incredible increase in the rate of concreting and urbanization as a result of the excessive use of fertile lands and forests and scattered settlement. I think this is the beginning of people living in closed boxes, their freedom areas being restricted and most importantly, the diseases that cause the deaths of millions of people. Of course, in addition to this, there are also devastating natural events that occur, namely natural events that are not under human control, in which we have recently experienced and lost thousands of people, such as earthquakes, fires, floods and many other natural disasters that we cannot even count, all over the world. I wanted to convey the scenarios that await the audience by connecting the chaos and post-war environments with the outdoor landscape with a strong contrast and exaggerated perspective where brown, white and gray colors are used intensively.
