In my works I search physical forms to embody abstraction of experience of being human. This work, as main part of my practice, is large size (150×100 cm) graphite drawing on paper. With graphite I feel I reach the purest figure for the philosophical points of view I’m trying to capture. In practice of drawing I bring together nature and human forms; a fruit becomes a corpus, a position of human body becomes an animal. Where does ‘me’ end and where does the otherness or stranger beginning?
