Budun

Edirne Biennial • Current Edition
"The concept of 'unification' has always held a deep fascination for me. Beyond its root of becoming 'one', I perceive it not as singularization, but as an endless multiplication. Every breathing and non-breathing element of nature fulfills this word for me, leaving little room for alternative meanings.

Every image that catches our eye the moment we open them is a form of unification. Even with the same eye looking at the same object, the state of being is forever altered. Thus, unifications are perpetually new, filled with discovery. They allow humans to truly feel alive—or rather, to sense the essence of living.

Many of us attempt to comprehend life, while some dedicate their entire existences to researching and writing about it. But do we ever try to simply feel life? If we did not forget that, despite our ability to speak and reason, we remain animals at our core, would we yield more space to our instincts? Are our feelings paying the toll for these two intellectual privileges?"

10th World Textile Art Biennial "The Eye"

Holistic Map of Sense

2022 | TAP & WTA, Istanbul

"The senses are not just one-way data transmitted to the brain. The brain not only collects and processes this data, but also meticulously accumulates it and blends every data it receives with this accumulation. This blend sometimes becomes sound, taste, image and reflected back. Is this reflection a delusion? Can a great description turn into data?"

A Shaman Village on the Steppe

2025 | Akbank Sanat & Painting and Sculpture Museums Association

In our village, all abstract and concrete entities live in balance and harmony. No blood is shed in this village; food comes from the earth, and we sit side by side with animals at the table to eat what the earth provides us. We have soldiers who are very strong. They are trained to carry the full extent of ancient knowledge passed down from our ancestors.
