Tear Drop Crystals
TEAR DROP CYRSTALS
Crying is an exocrine process, that is, a process in which a substance comes out of the body. Other exocrine processes, like exhaling, urinating, defecating and sweating, release toxic substances from the body. There’s every reason to think crying and sweating release chemicals that the body produces in response to stress. Most of the time we feel better after crying or sweating.
In most eastern cultures, men are taught not to express their emotions. Collecting the teardrops of men, dehydrating tears on petri dishes and photographing them under microscope led me to create these artworks. That proved to men that they can create those beautiful artworks by simply crying, expressing their emotions.
After sweating, thanks to the vaporous fluid, we can witness crystals in our bodies. These crystals are produced in response to our body after our emotional or physical activity. They are instinctive behaviours. We sometimes suppress this innate behaviour for many reasons.
Would that be possible to reduce the rate of stress-related illnesses by means of this relief; crying?

The Invisible Motion
The Invisible Motion series analyzes life with microscopic mechanisms. Even though we cannot perceive the motion with the naked eye, we can witness the micro motions and change processes of organisms by means of technological screening methods. In fact, this motion is the flow of the energy of life and life ends if it stops.
This project is a documentation of travels and research projects she has taken with biologist Dr. Joseph A. DeGiorgis. In this work, she analyzes the motion, color and tissue differences of organisms. Artists integrate the screening techniques used in the field of science to their visual language and enable these processes to be experienced by the viewers. This is an example of how boundaries are disappearing among disciplines.
Floral Landscapes
Using compound microscopes analyzing botanical cell structure that are impossible to see with naked eyes. In Floral Landscapes, they are the collages and paintings of different botanical series suggesting imaginary landscapes; inviting the audience to experience the microscope slides of the botanical cell structures in large scales.
Mold Blossom
Growing bacteria taken from different botanics led me to collaborate with living forms. Nature is fruitful and creative in an uncontrolled way. Growing mold was not something that I calculated when starting this experiment. Looking at mold under a light microscope let me think about the field of black flowers, moon surface, and microspheres.
