Ars Longa Vita Brevis

Book Description HTML

In this interactive e-book, I share a series of drawings and paintings that I worked on for nearly two years, created at my studio in Canary Islands. After receiving an invitation from Odakule Art Gallery, I decided to bring them to Istanbul for a solo exhibition. Since the beginning of this project, I have been writing throughout this “adventure” on my blog. There are interactive links and buttons in this e-book that, once you click on them, will take you to related websites. In this series which consists of a total of 40 art pieces, I introduce many famous Latin Proverbs observed from another dimension.
