I know that your first city experience was Cairo, but I still wonder how you adapted to the transition from a town in United States to Istanbul “the metropolis”. Can you please talk a little bit about that process?I spent the first twenty years of my life in small-town United States. Reading, literature, was always my way of traveling when I could do nothing to leave the flat, plain, whitewashed existential nausea of my hyper-local upbringing. But most importantly, I had a beloved grandfather who was born in New York City, and he relished me with tales. His first memory went back to 1919. He would spin yarns, half-factual I assumed, about Manhattan in the 1920s, and Brooklyn in the 1930s, I was fascinated. But in my adolescent room, sleeping beside my well-lined bookcase, I was something of an Orientalist, perhaps, stricken with glee over the idea of far-flung territories, exotic people and the experiences I might be able to have in other lands and communities. I wanted go, deeply. &nbsp;I did ask my university’s foreign exchange office if I could go to Mongolia. But without a word of Russian or Chinese, they offered alternatives like Japan, India or Egypt. I chose the latter. &nbsp;From there, I moved to Cairo, and since then I have lived in cities.<img src="https://images.aposto.com/2022/7/5/1660917364912.jpeg" style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px; border-style: none; position: relative; cursor: pointer; padding: 0px 1px; box-sizing: border-box;" width="550" ratio="0.67" fr-original-style="display: block; vertical-align: top; margin: 5px auto; text-align: center; width: 100%; max-width: 550px;" fr-original-class="fr-draggable">Matt gazing at the clear blue sky of ModaPhoto: Deniz Sabuncu<hr fr-original-style="" style="height: 0px; overflow: visible; border-bottom: none; clear: both; user-select: none; break-after: page; box-sizing: border-box;">You have been working as a freelance journalist &amp; writer who defies the formality and standardization of contemporary art writing.

In my work I have tried to transcend interpretation in the interest of expressing myself. As a writer, I always attempt to personalize my logocentric craft beyond the formalities or standardizations of institutional protocol. I think that is a raison d’être of being a writer. A writer is a radical form of self-representation. It is individualism with a cause.In art writing I have attempted to parallel the tone and verve of an artwork in writing. Whereas many art writers ground the work in academic or worldly terms, I send it flying into the nebulous realms of my noetic fantasies. In that sense, I am working in the vein of ekphrastic prose, using words like a spelunker exploring my psychological experience of the work, bringing the reader into my emotional and intellectual journey in confrontation with that precious dimension of sheer, human novelty that can only be found in art.

Ardışık programı kapsamında 23 Ocak 2022’ye kadar SALT Galata’da görülebilecek olan Belkıs Hanım ile Onur Efendi&nbsp;sergisi, modernleşme hamlesiyle beliren bir “aydın” kimliği ve onun beraberinde doğan çalkantılı ruh hâllerine odaklanıyor. Fatma Belkıs ve Onur Gökmen ikilisinin ilk uzun metrajlı kurgu filmi Alakadar’dan (2018-süregelen) bir kesitle bir dizi heykelden oluşan çalışma, otoriteyle kurulan sancılı ilişki kadar, sanatsal üretimde başarısızlık kaygısını ele alıyor. Ardışık programını incelemek için <a fr-original-style="" href="https://saltonline.org/tr/2303/ardisik" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: rgb(9, 9, 9); text-decoration: none; background-color: transparent; outline: none; cursor: pointer; transition: color 0.3s ease 0s; touch-action: manipulation; user-select: auto; box-sizing: border-box;" target="_blank">saltonline.org</a> adresini ziyaret edebilirsiniz.
