SERKAN TEKIN’s “Istanbul: A Street Opera” Series

Ne yapmalıydım, nasıl

yapmalıydım emin değildim.

Fotoğrafı ve fotoğraf makinemi

tanıdıkça, sokaklara ve insanlara

alıştıkça o kafa karışıklığı gitmeye

başladı. Anlatmak istediğim

her şeyin, aradığımın, sanatın

sokaklarda olduğunu anladım.

Beni yıllardır yoğuran şeyleri

görmeye başladım sokaklarda.

Mizah da sokaktaydı, acı da...

Güzel ve çirkin, iyi ve kötü, canlı

ve cansız, biçim ve hikaye, normal

ve anormal, gerçek ve hatta

gerçeküstü... hepsi sokaktaydı.

I wasn’t sure what and how should

I do . As I got to know the photo

and my camera, and got used

to the streets and people, that

confusion started to disappear.

I realized that everything I want

to tell and what I was looking for

was on the streets. I started to

see things that have ripen me for

years in the streets. Humor was

on the street, pain was on the

street... beautiful and ugly, good

and bad, alive and lifeless, form

and story, normal and abnormal,

real and even surreal... it was all

on the streets.
