Tolga Sezen dares the way from photo towards painting.
During his creative process the realistic image becomes abstract. The
„planned“ randomness plays a substantial role in his work. He was born
in Istanbul 1965, as a child of a liberal, cosmopolitan artist family. In his
youth, he went to Vienna, studied computer engineering and finally he became an autodidact
in photography and digital photo processing. His artwork is photography-based. The first trigger
of his carreer as an artist has been an exhibition with photorealistic works.
Tolga Sezen: The moment
of the transformation of a
photo to a digital painting
is magical – like a slightly
approaching dream,
searching its way from reality
to an illuminated new
existence…
