Like the world it seeks to depict, the art of the landscape has been utterly transformed through the centuries. Once a genre unacknowledged, it has journeyed to become the essential subject of some of the world's most enduring visions. This series traces that profound metamorphosis—not as a chronicle of style, but as an evolving dialogue between sight and insight, between the terra we inhabit and the terra we inscribe with meaning.

The works presented here could be sites or fragments of an imagined society—utopian or rustic, perhaps deserted cities or bustling ones, depending on the viewer's own gaze.

Within this cartography of the fictive, geometric forms coexist with organic, dynamic elements in an atmosphere of dense texture. These are routes where ritual chants echo in memory, guided by the remnants of musical scores inscribed in a secret calligraphy.

Beneath these vibrant, anonymous surfaces, the viewer becomes both witness and interpreter to the erosion of the landscape. Each striation, accident, or mark represents an immortalized lesson that time itself reconfigures and decomposes, creating new meaning with every passing moment. The images act as a vocabulary; the composition, a syntax.

M20241217 Mixed media Canvas 200 X 140 centimeters (78 X 55 Inches) 2024 In an era when artificial intelligence generates representations of our most uninhibited “prompts” at unimaginable speeds, I present this series of paintings, which—without my realizing it at the time—I had already begun in 1998. That year, I produced a portrait of my school friend Marie as part of an analog photography laboratory course. This image now serves as the point of departure for a new body of work, reconfigured into painterly compositions and interwoven with figures, hairstyles, clothing, and other motifs drawn from diverse art-historical movements. Copied again and again, the facial features drawn from the same photographic source inevitably change with each human “print.” Through this process, the work pays homage to the academy as an institution, while simultaneously integrating elements from my own personal history. The academic tradition and the autobiographical narrative intersect, generating a sp...

About my Notebooks

 The image above is from the year 2011 and captures the moment when I destroyed my notebooks containing notes and projects up until that year. I felt it was a point in my life when I needed to elevate my artistic processes and improve the way I developed my notes in my notebooks. Now, I am truly happy with the process and organization I maintain in my notebooks, and I have decided to digitize them to create a backup. I’m sharing one of them with you. Notebook 04.

TOL20240925 (SOLD) Mixed media / Canvas 170 X 170 centimeters (67X67 Inches) 2024 First test /Sketches This series is about the representation of nature, a recurring theme throughout the history of art. The Tree of Life is a symbol found across various religions and cultures, including Christianity, Judaism, Celtic traditions, and Turkish mythology. It has held many meanings, such as the union of life and death, the connection between heaven and earth, and the harmony between people and nature. It can also represent the primal energies of creation and the cycles of life. The Tree of Life often features a tree trunk with branches that spread out and then return to the trunk. The trunk may symbolize the union between life and death, while the branches can represent the paths we take in life, all leading back to the trunk. Branc...
