The Body of Just Before Sleep:
This is a very personal serie shoot at night in ›stanbul Turkey.
It’s a street photography experience, almost without people.
There aren’t any people around. But their marks, signs and wastes remain.
It’s just about feelings about the city and its feelings
like loneliness, emptiness, absence.
All photographs were taken vertical and presented 3in1 together
So I tried to make their feelings higher in a cinematographic evocation
