“It should be obvious that art is the most peaceful language to relate people all around the world, and photography as a powerful and popular part of the arts has affected on conscious and perceptual matters of contemporary people. I, as a photographer, am tending to open a dialogue with myself and the others in order to convey beauty, mystery, indefinite, magical and paradoxical photography.”
