"War Between the Urban Artefact and the Green" by M Hüseyin YILDIZ
This visual work renders the never-ending war between the urban artefact and the green. The formal language of the composition, the two distinct halves of the frame, represents this conflict in between. On the left-half of the frame, the concrete building blocks dominate the space and the cold-hearted greyness transforms the space into a cold place. On the contrary, the viewer is captured with the sunlit green on the right-half of the frame and the warmth of the atmosphere. The line that splits the frame between two witnesses how the assertive concrete is confronted with the persistent green. The green decidedly makes its way towards the line and reaches out to the blocks, presenting its fighting spirit. But then the lengthy shadows of the blocks step into the green and turns it into a deadly- concrete texture. This render becomes a storyteller about this border breach.
