YUNUS EMRE SARI
2DYunus Emre Sarı (Sakarya, 1996) completed his undergraduate education at Sakarya University Painting Department. While continuing his undergraduate education, he started working as an artisan at ASAŞ Art Workshop in 2017, working with painting and sculpture artists from different disciplines such as Süleyman Saim Tekcan, Hanefi Yeter, Bilal Hakan Karakaya. He worked as the assistant of sculptor Mert Ege Köse between 2017 and 2021. He left ASAŞ Art workshop in February 2021. Sarı continues his work in his own workshop in Sakarya.
Today, machines, which have an important place in every aspect of life, especially in industry, are the result of the human mind, even though they seem superhuman. Sarı, who treats machines as a manifestation of the human mind, interprets machine aesthetics in his works from a different perspective than the futurist perspective. Contrary to the futurist understanding that praises speed and the power that comes from speed, in the process of artistic creation, machines stop for a moment and bring back the lost silence. The silence of the machines depicted in Sarı's works represents the helplessness of the human mind declaring victory over nature, and machines, like dead nature and objects, turn into a kind of still life.
