The Guesthouse is a visual diary, named after Rumi's poem with the same name, which is a result of my attempt to discover inner landscapes on the concepts of reflection, uncertainty, immobility, home, death, and life during quarantine times between May-Jun 2020. It was conducted as a part of collective editorial work, with the editorship of . .rocks made a wonderful soundscape from the sounds that I collected in this period which turns the series to an audiovisual piece.

Water Dreams
The Guesthouse, 2020
Forests are burning and I am praying for water these days.
These reflections are not from a pool or a lake, they are created by a prism and just in the camera.

2019 - from the series
Recently, I was reconstructing my nature-human double exposures as 3D sculptures by using code art techniques at
So I decided to share some of the photographs from these series about nature and human connection in here which I made while I was researching on surrealist techniques to play with space and time.
They are two different photographs I took, double exposure in photoshop. The model is dear
โIn the beginning there was blackness, only the sea.
In the beginning there was no sun, no moon, no people in the beginning there were no animals.
No plants, only the sea.
The sea was the mother. The mother was not people feels not anything, nothing at all.โ โ From the Heart of the world โ Elder Brothersโ Warning
Thank you mother nature for the beautiful life you gave it to me, I am grateful for all the living, I am grateful for all the things, all the people I have in my life.
I am grateful.
I just wanted to share this photograph which resonated a lot with me today and I wanted to put it here as a note for myself, with this beautiful quote which I have been carrying inside me for a long time.
Thank you to dear for creating the moment.
the effect on the top, is coming from lovely hand-made filters of and straight out from the camera.
Have a great day everyone!

โA dream is a microscope through which we look at the hidden occurrences in our soul.โ - Erich Fromm
The Dreamer's Home
Forgotten By The Day is a personal visual journey which started with the aim to look at the dark corners of the unconscious mind. I was inspired a lot from psychoanalysis, especially from Erich Fromm and Carl Gustav Jung.
At one point of the journey I realized what I was looking for is the characters who appeared in the dreams who are usually faces from our daily life. Except this photograph, which stands as a home of the dreamer for me.
One of the key experiments of the journey was creating a dream machine with dear , which is a design by Ian Sommervile. By personalizing it a bit with colors, the main inspiration for the series and main light in most of the photographs came up. With this post I wanted to share some stages of this evolution since I got many questions about the series since the last couple of days.
Forgotten by the Day is a series exploring fluid boundaries of the identity between dreams and the waking life. All colors and distortions made in an analog way by using tangible materials in the physical world, and straight out from the camera.
