'Water–level' | 'Su týrasý'
acrylic on canvas, 2008, 130 - 150 cm

A painting, a statement.
A statement about the drinking- and wastewater situation in Cappadocia Turkey, where I live and work, which is out of balance.
The work has been exhibited in the 3d Contemporary Art Festival Mustafapasa 2008, as an awareness contribution to the theme WATER!=BRIGHT? SU!=PIRILTI?

'Message in a bottle' – (design) six panels
acrylic on canvas, 2008

A way to show that the global situation of water is critical.
Therefore the water in 'Message in a bottle' is leveled, but the paintings are hanging out of balance.
These works need a wall surface of 2.50m. - 13 m.
