Hakkında

As someone who has lived within visual communication for forty years, I not only analyzed art - I collected it, lived with it, chatted with it while drinking my morning coffee. My twenty-three years in the advertising industry taught me how images work, my fifteen years in academia helped me grasp its theory, but it was my collecting that showed me how art breathes.

A work of art is one thing on a gallery wall, another in your living room. It speaks differently in morning light, tells a different story under an evening lamp. Collecting was never a "investment portfolio" for me - more like a long-term friendship. Sometimes artworks choose you, not the other way around.

As someone who grew up in Mediterranean light, watching how local artists speak in a global language is a special pleasure. That's actually why I founded Collecist - to remove the unnecessary distance between artist and collector, to deflate the gallery system's pomposity a bit. Art gains meaning not in museum sterility, but within life itself.

Each work in my collection is a memory, an encounter, sometimes an argument. Some I bought without thinking for years, others I kept before my eyes for months. My academic side asks "why?", my collector side says "why not?". Beautiful things happen in the tension between the two.

In the end, accumulating art is a somewhat obsessive, somewhat romantic, completely unnecessary but equally indispensable curiosity. And I am someone who has placed this curiosity at the center of my life, intertwining theory and practice. My walls are full, my mind is full, my mood is good.
