CİNS

He was born in Ankara in 1984. The artist, who uses the pseudonym "cins" in the exhibitions he participated in and the works he produced, formed the basis of his graffiti and art background, which he started during his high school years. He graduated from Yeditepe University Graphic Design department in 2007. Then, in 2008, he continued his education with Sabancı University Visual Communication Design Master's program and completed his education in 2011. With this training, his production took its current form. In his works, from the cartoon characters he was influenced by at a young age to the graffiti culture he encountered at an early age; he draws from a spectrum ranging from pop-art to surrealism. He uses many mediums and techniques, including city walls, in his works based on a graphic visual language.

He expresses himself through the forms he creates and calls "organic", which are still evolving within itself. These forms are structures that sometimes form a whole, and sometimes are divided into independent parts. With these forms that evoke flesh and bone; He aims to provide a feeling that does not actually belong to us, but that we are not so foreign, and to present sometimes abstract, sometimes surreal stories and feelings based on this infrastructure. He lives in Istanbul and continues his work.
