In creating the “Breaking the Shell” series, I aim to push the boundaries of art and life. My experiences with art and culture in Türkiye and around the world have opened new spaces in my mind, allowing me to break free from conventions. The abstract and fluid forms in this series provide a window into my inner journey. Each layer symbolizes my evolution and the process of breaking my shell. The healing and liberating power of art inspires both me and the audience.
