Sometimes, the most profound answers lie within the quietude of our being. In the embrace of silence, we discover the depths of our existence, and the wisdom that can only be found in the spaces between. This performance art piece explores the power of silence and nonverbal communication as a means of expression. It highlights the transformative potential of silence and invites the audi-ence to contemplate the profound nature of unspoken truths.

Dance is a kind of performance that cannot fit into a certain mold and prejudices.
Indeed, dance is a unique form of performance that defies strict categorization and challenges preconceived notions. It is a diverse and expressive art form that encompasses a wide range of styles, movements, and cultural influences.
One of the fascinating aspects of dance is its ability to transcend language barriers and commu-nicate emotions and narratives through physical movement.
Furthermore, dance can’t be confined to a fixed mold or limited by prejudices because it is con-tinually evolving. Different cultures, generations, and artists bring their unique perspectives and creativity to the art form, pushing boundaries and redefining what dance can be. This constant evolution ensures that dance remains a vibrant and ever-changing expression of human culture.
Ultimately, dance is an art form that celebrates diversity, encourages individuality, and promotes a sense of unity among performers and audiences alike. It invites us to embrace the beauty of movement and appreciate the limitless possibilities of human expression, free from the con-straints of molds and prejudices.
Title: “ Who are you? “
This work started as performance art and was then present-ed as an art installation.
In my opinion, the mirrors symbolize society’s inability to look within itself. It also represents the importance of reflecting and looking within ourselves, performance art is incomparable and almost always unconventional. Unpre-dictable and uncontrollable, much of the work depends on its audience’s reactions (or non-reactions).
The presentation period is 3 day. Italy,Rome/RUFA 2023
Title: “Infinitive Freedom: The Flight Within” RUFA/2023
BREAKING DOWN BORDERS
RUFA SPACE: BREAKING DOWN BORDERS - RUFA - Rome University of Fine Arts
Description:
“Infinity Freedom: The Flight Within” is a performance art piece that combines painting and bird symbolism to explore freedom. The artist sets up a canvas representing limitless potential, then paints a vibrant bird to embody the spirit of liberation. Through this performance, the aim is to inspire viewers to reflect on their own understanding of freedom, embrace their aspirations, and value self-expression. Perfor-mance art on freedom encompasses diverse creative expres-sions, incorporating music to evoke emotions and enhance the exploration. Songs like “Bella ciao” can be integrated to amplify the message. Performance art challenges traditional boundaries, blurring the line between art and life. The fusion of music, lyrics, and visual art creates a multidimensional experience, though the artist’s intention to sing “Bella ciao” as a vocalist faced mixed reactions. Overall, performance art provides a unique platform for experimentation, challenging conventions, and engaging with the audience, emphasizing presence and the immediacy of live performance.

Title: “Smokeless Serenity”
Performance Description:
In Smokeless Serenity, I will visually highlight the importance of prioritizing our health and finding healthier solutions to our problems. The main theme revolves around the idea that engaging in bad habits like smoking just adds unnecessary drama to our lives and doesn’t offer a real solution.I just hope to stop smoking.
In the performance, I placed a small mirror on the table in front of the atelier. The mirror represents self-reflec-tion and an opportunity for personal growth.
As soon as the show started, I stood in front of the mirror and looked at him. The audience’s attention was drawn to the mirror, where I had written in bold, prominent letters, “No smoke, no drama.” It serves as a visual remind-er of the main message. It represents self-reflection and thinking about healthier alternatives. It symbolizes the importance of taking a step back to assess the impact of our choices on our health and well-being. We should not suffer our health because of any problem. Because bad habits are not a solution to problems.
Symbolic breaking: Holding a cigarette in my hand, I smoked it, then I broke the cigarette with my hands, continuing by cutting it sharply into several pieces, symbolizing the breaking of a destructive habit. This action represents a determination to remove smoke and drama from one’s life.
Quitting: For the next few days, I did not smoke for as long as I can.I tried and did it. This gesture represents getting rid of the negative effects of smoking and the resulting drama. And I still believe that I will let it go. It’s just that it’s a little harder for me when the close people around me smoke.
The goal of “Smoke Free Serenity” is to encourage viewers to prioritize their health and seek constructive solutions to their problems rather than engaging in unhealthy habits that bring more drama and complications into their lives.

From Nature To Art. Installation of BioConstruction
The aim of the workshop held by @aslitekinatelier was to teach students to create art through the use of earth, straw, sands, stones, and any other material available in nature and its surroundings, to build furniture as well as entire houses.
As future #designers, it is important to develop an ecological awareness and become familiar with the use of natural and non-toxic raw materials.
I did this ball as a part of the "Sit-on" installation. Dorodango is a traditional Japanese art form where soil is shaped and polished into a perfect sphere. It requires patience, precision, and an understand-ing of the natural materials involved. Creating a dorodango ball as part of an installation adds a unique and visually captivating element to the overall artwork. Each viewer's interpretation of the artwork may differ, but the combination of a dorodango ball, soil, sand, and other natural materials provides a rich sensory experience and invites contemplation about our relationship with the earth and the beauty found in simplicity
Shortly, İn my opinion,creating art with natural materials can be a wonderful way to explore themes of nature, sustainability, and the connection between humans and the environment. That sounds like a fascinating art installation!. We created it as a group in worksop of RUFA. "Sit-on" art installation also have the potential to engage viewers uniquely and interactively.

“Those who dream only for themselves are lost in history" 2.7.2022 Perugia, Italy
So, what is my point? Of course, I think that we should follow our passion, and I also truly believe that everyday acts of kindness are just as important as large scale efforts for change. But I also truly believe that there is something great and beautiful in devoting your life to helping others, to always looking around and paying attention to what is going on and asking, “How can this world be better, and what can I do to make it that way?” So, dream big. Dream bigger. But in that grand scheme of your future, remember to include other people too. Not only will you be helping others, but in the end , you will be helping yourself as well. In this performance I wanted to reflect that caring for someone else makes a person happy. As an uncle, I helped my sister as much as I could. Love children, they are our future. Every life, short or long , is a novel.!!
Participated in the performance art Babak Abdullayev and his nephew Paul Richard Asenov
In this performance I wanted to convey to people the word has a charm like water , it would be nice to say less of each word and even if there is a pearl purity in the water, it hurts to drink extreme water. I mean everything is good in its own dose.

Video link: (2913) Performance art - That is my pleasure - YouTube
Every artist has their own double trouble world.I want to convey my double trouble as a performance art to the audience of artists who are developing by feeling their own works. Since the world of artists seems strange to the audience, I chose this topic to show them how I enter my double trouble, creative world while painting my body and my clothes. Also, I want to show what the world of artists is like. It doesn't matter if we paint on canvas. We can also go outside the canvas. Art has no limits
