Carnivorous  series started for me as a childhood memory. A colorful and dreamy
atmosphere,  Like Alice in Wonderland. They suddenly come to life and move
rhythmically, multiply and fill everywhere with open mouths. I was fascinated by the
different shapes of carnivorous flowers that resemble human genitalia. I found
something special and important, a primitive shape, which is shared by the womb, old
pottery and carnivorous plants. These basic shapes, which also occur abstractly in
ancient handmade pottery (jars), are directly related to the creation and permanence
of life. A special space full of secrets that are the preservers, earthenware jars and
human wombs are the same shape and both are preservers of basic biological
materials (perhaps also mediators for the continuation of life). The physicality of
these shapes, which sometimes takes on a circular shape, is actually an internal
interpretation of itself that surprises me. When I work for many hours on paintings of
carnivorous flowers and shapes stained with their colors, gradually I discover its
abstract shapes, and it is necessary for me to allow myself to present these
experiences in a form and at the same time with a more eloquent but abstract
expression.
