Ten Thousand Entropies
Find Your
True Nature
“it has to do with curiosity”
“It has to do with people wondering what makes something do something. And then to discover, if you try to get answers that they are related to each other; that things that make the wind make the waves, that the motion of water is like the motion of air is like the motion of sand. The fact that things have common features. It turns out more and more universal. What we are looking for is how everything works. What makes everything work”,

“entropy
with
Empathy”
My photographic/ cinematic tone of story to the world is
to offer the warmth of
what it means to be a human being.
Listening,
Understanding,
asking with curiosity,
asking with love,
….
empathy grows,
ten thousand Entropies appear,
and the Universe appears.
‘what is this?’
Water plants, save all beings.

Every perspective creates a point of understanding. To me, photography allows me to discover myself by letting me make an action. My images represent a way of life.

is a photographic moment in the world of farmers’ markets. Street foods and cultural genesis come from the streets we share to come and go.
To Feed A planet is a moment of joy with food and people. Food is a bridge between the planet and all human beings.
Garlic Boy, 2009. Göreme, Turkey
“..featuring open farmers’ markets around the globe was such a mind-opening experience that i can’t stop sharing the vibe of laughter, love, and joy of being in diverse communities.
Every pictoral moment is a genuine engagement between myself and the scene.
Art is nothing but an observation that is shared with our ideas and belief.
