Have ever had the possibility of exhibiting your drawings and Do you have an intention of becoming an artist of a gallery? How are you evaluating the galleries?
From time to time, I am invited by the group exhibitions. Maybe there will be the second personal exhibition soon. The definition of gallery artist is very far away for now. Is the art an institution that makes your living by working? It depends on the attitude of the gallery. I have friends who are working with the gallery and are happy, and the ones who are with plenty of complaints.
Could you tell us about the movies you watch, music you listen to and the artists you follow? In brief, what inspires you?
I think the movies is very important source for this profession. Leos Carax is a director who left his mark, with which I am impressed the most. I watch every movie of him. Kadıköy Sound! Cenk Taner is the best songwriter I’ve ever seen. The latest album of Nick Cave and the movie 20,000 days on earth that I watched last week, caused my admiration to increase. By the way, there was a project in which I produced ambient, drone, noise, electroacoustic, experimental sound designs. Such as dubbing trial of drawing...(soundcloud.com/e_3) When I am answering this interview, I am listening to Leonard Cohen. There are lots of people in the field of art that I love to follow, I think it takes long to count them one by one. The illustrator that I discovered recently, Andy Rementer, attracting my attention a lot.
Maybe, you can make recommendations us as watching-listening?
