After The Ball, 2020-Ongoing
After the Ball is a series of self-portraits created with inspiration from artists' works such as Toulouse-Lautrec, and Ramon Casas; is a playful interpretation of the draining everyday news and mental health issues from another era's colors and perspectives. The painting-like photographs were shot and then edited with digital brush strokes and scanned textures, in order to create a high resemblance with the original piece, yet playing and changing their context using modern-day symbolism.

Portraits of Actress Ece Cesmioglu, 2016-2014
Following orders is a series created during the Covid-19 quarantine in 2020.
From L.A to Arizona, Texas to Istanbul, I met my model and actress friends on FaceTime to capture images that are glitchy but dreamy, distant but emotional.
They virtually hosted me in their homes, the places I’ve never been. Some of them I met for the first time.
They are Clare Gillies, Dario Day, Dorée Seay, Ece Cesmioglu, Finn Bremner and Taína Mia.
Still Life & Objects
The Glitch and Some Veggies, 2015-2021
Series was created by scanning and moving objects in order to produce artifacts. The scanner is a kind of fictional microcosmos wherein the speed of light is slowed down enough to interact with. The resulting images bear an eerie space like quality, wherein ordinary objects are warped and split into their spectra floating, and flecks of dust set them against a dusty backdrop that harkens back to the emptiness of the universe.
