I have focused more on the daily aspects of human beings; the contemporary human who is mostly in buses and subways

and does not have the opportunity to stop and think. They get on the bus in the morning and return at night. I had a work

titled Death on the Bus, which was a symbol of people who are always working and even die while

on the bus. I showed people to themselves; my works are a mirror in which people can see themselves. The human in my works does not perform any great or complex task, but rather they are the same people we encounter and see every day, and in my opinion, it is the characteristic of art that makes these simple human behaviors worth seeing. As Paul Klee said, art does not show us the visible, but makes the invisible visible. The humans in my works are alienated humans; humans who are immersed in themselves, suspended, and confused; humans who are physically close but mentally distant, and in my opinion, the contemporary human is waiting for nothing but the arrival of the subway.
