Student statement-- I have a kind of mission I feel. I am making my way through this endless universe creating my own rules and renaming what important is. As I go, I want to take as many people as I can, with me. Touching hearts by the innocence of arts. Creating a beautiful, well-functioning community only filled with good intentions. I dream of people helping others to grow. I knew. For me to make my way, I had to become more authentic each day. I had to be free to be completely me. I was amazed when I first saw Zarembas works online. That moment I knew he was meant to be my mentor. I was guided by him to go back to my German roots, what I carry in my blood by right. I understood that I carry my grandma Uta Ida Erika Tutkavuls artistic soul. I grew up loving Mattise and Monet but the moment I met Asger Jorn and Cy Twombly in my paintings, I felt like greeting an old friend. As I searched deeper it wasnt always pretty. I had to meet my inner demons and I knew I had to accept or convert them. Work In Progress is the beginning of my beautiful journey. Nehir Sena Görür

Year 2019, seems to be valued just as highly as ever. Being in the art studio inspires me for aesthetic thinking about the human body shapes . Lights, outline shapes, skin tone and muscles are revealed by the unusual light effects and the body comes out of the darkness by showing up the beauty and secrets of every part of the human body.
