"Hope is always a good thing"
"I am analysing the phenomena of 'hope' by connecting the possibilities of our imagination. When I watch the news, I would hear the word 'hope' very often in connection with economy, areas of conflict and so on. We are always talking about the social contexts where 'hope' has to get involved. We know some places do not have clean water, but it is really hard for us to think about it as we have water running from the tap. I wanted to discover our unconscious ego with my humble water because we just feel granted everything. The same logic applies to ego fuel, ego oxygen and ego lamp. I would like people to think of others who are less fortunate than they are. There are places in the world where water does not run from the tap, where there is no electricity. I am working on this series because I couldn't care about someone else than myself for quite some time. Arriving in Europe I had no other choice than to take every possible job to eat and survive. Therefore I arrange the objects very carefully to visualise the social contexts and global issues as simple as possible."
