This piece represents the nature and form of ideologies. Every ideology has it's distinctive aesthetics which had been used throughout history. Religion or politics, doesn't matter because they are both ideology with a goal of spreading it's influence and agenda. Sometimes one ideology can have multiple forms in the historical timeline, but the goal stays the same. I examine those symbols and use them in a metaphorical way.
Besides art with various media, I am a printmaker too. My linocut works are representing from many private spheres like emotional situations, ideologies, thoughts, to worldwide problems and topics which are made more objectively. Using these topics or feelings I convert them into the portraits and give them some kind of personality. Portraits and their faces are always hidden or blurred because they do not exist, they are ideology or an idea and not real humans. Every work has it's own concept and meaning.
