CAPPADOCIAN
‘Excavations in the long history of Cappadocia’
Carrying out a detailed investigation on the 5000 years old past of this region in central Anatolia and setting out from the traces of various prehistoric and historic cultures in the area, the artist has reflected his own iconographic interpretation on canvas, using current engraving methods, also as layered as the theme itself. Symbolic images of Assyrian seals and inscriptions, Hittite adornments, Persian reliefs, Roman and Byzantine icons, Seljuq and Ottoman calligraphy and of course the exceptional natural wonders like fairy chimneys are the thematic elements of the “ CAPPADOCIAN” paintings which reflect a unique historical and cultural heritage.
