In the Beech Forest

Bekir Islam, Turkey

I am a painter working on landscape and portrait paintings in a realistic and hyperrealist style. My focus has always been nature in my paintings.  The nature that the post-modernist capitalist society and management approaches destroyed in the name of their own interests.  I am trying to raise awareness about this vanishing nature.  In doing so, I use light and nature itself as an image for attentive viewers.  With these images, I aim to create a perspective in the audience and raise awareness with it.
