ear / kulak​

acrylic glass, acrylic paint

18x32 inch

​

this artwork is an orthodox exploration of the sensory and sensual nature of the human body

​

the ear is an often overlooked part of the body in terms of its abilities and connotations beyond hearing

 

the scale of the artwork emulates close proximity and intimacy

​

its ambiguous forms, crevices and intricacies, subtly allude to other parts of the body, suggesting a holistic inquiry

 

the glossy surface of the plastic hints at temptation

 

when considering the subject matter as a receptor of sound and communication, the ear denotes the importance of these aspects in our interactions with others and ourselves in the context of our sexual experiences
