Artist Statement for Zuhal Baysar

In fact life itself is secluded. Because the secluded one is the private one; it is something secret, it is for our own, something we do not share out with anybody; just like our life.. We all work, go to school or office, eat and talk every day; but anything we do happens to be private for ourselves. Because our solitude, our thoughts, the loving ones, intervenes with a melody or a glimpse then takes us to a special moment. We do not open our whole life to anyone for not to be harmed or misjudged. Our life, our solitude, nourishes the external world without revealing itself..
The most uncanny life of ours, the unlimited inward is as secluded as its impropriety for the dependable atmosphere of the status in public. Therefore these works are as secluded as to be exhibited.. I exhibit my inner self; my fears, my contradictions, my sadness and my family; the people sharing the life with me, my husband, my son and the ordinary objects like the door bell, the light switches or the shoes, everything that has a meaning in my life. Exhibiting, recreates the secluded one unexpectedly and surprisingly; therefore as long as the secluded one exhibited it looses its miterious and attractive being and becomes ordinary. As long as the audience gets used with the secluded being of the one, it salutes the one as it salutes any other secure event; quietly and calmly. It is curious that, this transformation is not only experienced by the audience, but also by me. These works reflecting my privacy are not that private for me any more. I should confess that I have experienced the inevitible shock of the event that, in fact I have planned; the penetration to my secured and secluded life, the first day of the exhibition; but now it is impossible to experience that feelings once again. The intimate feelings and thoughts that are displayed in my works are now free and dissolving into the being of the common awkwardly.. They are out of my concience; seems like they are not mine any more.. So we can say that, anything hidden grows in the radius of our life inwardly; maybe thats why the hidden one has the ability to penetrate into our being, our behaviour and it effects our life in great deal. It looses its charm when we take it out and free it from ourself. I really do not know, which one is better; keeping it for growing inside, or sharing out and finishing it? I chose the second one.
