Form, Analysis & Synthesis

In the material culture as well as in the iconic culture, forms are visualized and generated through diverse and complex actions of analysis and synthesis. Exploring more unconventional methods of interpretation and presentation, I build ephemeral constructions to explore the illusionist properties of photography. I’m exploring and exploiting the tension between chaos and order. This process actively connects me with my environment, my existence, my reality. And it always generates more questions than answers. This group of pictures was produced using film, multiple exposure, and other techniques. I am searching for the visual essence of what we see around us. We have become used to the stylistic conventions of photography. My photographic work breaks the rules of what people expect photographs to be.
