Passion (from the Latin verb patere meaning to suffer) is a term applied to a very strong feelingabout a person or thing. Passion is an intense emotion, compelling enthusiasm or desire for anything.
Searching the perfect beauty, that is the driving force. It is this that gives us the strength to go forward and seek ideals. It is our desire for absoluteness of dignity and divinity. It is action, lighting and thought. It drives us to violate the rules to make sacrifices and endure the pain. It is the pathos with which we build the Tower of Babel.

Selecting the information, combining the known futuristically, by patterns with surprising facts,
I collect data base of images, events and pictures. Making relations and associations between them,
I concretize specific topics and images.
I deconstruct them. I put them under pressure, bending, cutting and drilling, place outlines of marks, lines and circumferences on them. I place them monochromatically, or as negatives, having different scales or surfaces. I change their contents.
