“In the cycle of life, by apprehending each moment with a new perspective, we are being transformed. Each experience and interaction shapes who we are. Based on self-healing, trust and love I try to establish collaborations with humans and non-humans who permeate my life and work. I make paintings by rubbing the flowers and leaves on canvas, publishing wishes, filling the gaps.”

Murat Yıldız (1984) studied Combined Arts at Yıldız Technical University and completed his master’s degree in Fine Arts at St. Joost School of Art & Design in the Netherlands. He is the co-founder of @dream.news and part of HAH Kolektif @hahkolektif .
