Artist Statement for Akif Emir
|
|
|
Artist uses a monkey icon as a main subject matter in his 'Monkey Code' series. Monkey Code is about a conspiracy theory that happening in today world crisis. To artist, conspiracy theory is a reality, not a myth or a legend. It is a grand design and mastermind by the satanic worshiper and followers (ignorance). Monkey is a symbol of imitators, cunning, tricky and mischievous behavior...... which is a main character of a conspirator. Today, the world we live-in are in the stage of chaos. We are at the peak of catastrophe. It is true, the internet made the world at your finger tip. Internet started to become artist teacher, university and as a research centre, a place for intellectual discourses. With internet, as if we can scan the whole big world… the history, religion, culture, politics, economy, environment etc. into a tiny marble. In “monkey code” series, artist use articles from internet as part of the titles. Artist will give a link (code) to the audience to understand more about the argument that he tries to express and visualize in his painting. Artist used Allegory Style and Methodology to visual expression that uses symbolic figures, objects, and actions to convey truths or generalizations about human conduct or experience. It encompasses such forms as the metaphor, fable and parable. Characters often personify abstract concepts or types, and the action of the narrative usually stands for something not explicitly stated. Symbolic allegories, in which characters may also have an identity apart from the message they convey, have frequently been used to represent political and historical situations and have long been popular as vehicles for satire....irony, sarcasm, or caustic wit used to alert, attack or expose folly, vice, or stupidity.
