He completed his undergraduate education at Ondokuz Mayıs University, Faculty of Education, Department of Art Education. He completed his master’s and doctoral studies at Gazi University, Institute of Educational Sciences, Department of Fine Arts Education, with his thesis on “The effect of STEAM-based approach in visual arts education.” He completed his second doctorate at HBV University, Faculty of Fine Arts, with his thesis titled “Epistemology of color field paintings in the art images of World War II from a poststructural perspective,” which also forms the academic foundation of his current works. Since 2010, he has been working as an academic and, as of 2024, continues his productions with the DG Art Gallery & Projects family.

He has conducted academic research on art in cities such as Barcelona, Brussels, Rome, Amsterdam, Warsaw, and Florence. His works have been exhibited in numerous national and international exhibitions and art fairs, and he has held 13 solo exhibitions. His works have been displayed in cities such as Shenzhen, Toronto, Boston, Tokyo, Kyiv, Warsaw, Nakhchivan, Tirana, and Tabriz. The artist’s works are also present in private institutions and organizations.

In his works, he has focused on the negative impact of primitive complexities, which rose with modernism, on individuals. Since 2010, he has aimed to produce works on the socio-cultural factors of these concepts, thus merging his works under the themes of “FÜG” and “DISSOCIATIVE FÜG.”

Since 2016, he has focused on the indirect changes of today’s wars, which stem from globalized ideas driven by consumption and destruction instincts, on future generations. These works and texts are combined under the series “KID WARS” and “ATMOSPHERE.”

In his recent paintings, conceptualism has significantly raised awareness, and he has created concepts titled “Three variations of one emotion.” These works, exhibited in the “TRYPTIQUE SERIES,” have taken their place alongside his two other series.

The visuals, which carry contemporary interpretations of color field-cubism traces in abstract themes, aim to convey the philosophical and psychological themes beneath the surface, such as Derrida’s, Jung’s, and Heidegger’s insights on how concepts like Fugue, agnosia, and amnesia are visualized. Seeking a sense of spirituality within our inner world, the artist emphasizes the importance of the communication between the artwork and the viewer, aspiring to offer the “Absolute Pleasure of Knowledge.”
