Artist's Comments

Amasya, Turkey...

Kingdoms, Kings, Empires passed through this city...

The city that served as the house, the school, the shelter, the oasis, the source of light for the ones who needed it...

Phanicoisans, Romans, Ottomans, Turks...

All gave their praise to this mind-trembling place...

No photo can reflect the power that this city holds...

As you cannot draw the history of 4000 years on a piece of paper...

But maybe... You can imagine...

You can inhale the smell of a thousand storms, millions of incence burners, the perfumes of tens of sultans...

Maybe you can hear the warcries, the lullabies, the hummings, the love songs, the rituals...

You can see The Moon and The Sun and The Clouds of onemillionfourhundredandsixtythousand days, dancing, turning, like the mechanism of a huge machine...

Maybe we will not see one hundred years...

But we can feel the vast space of four thousand...

When we feel the wind of a thousand whispers...

Around us...

Best Regards and :heart:

dark pictures, thrones, the stones that pilgrims kiss,
poems that take a thousand years to die;
but ape the immortality of this
red label on a little butterfly.
