Born in 1980, is a photographer whose black-and-white work draws on personal experience and emotional memory. His photographs often present dreamlike, timeless scenes in which place and time remain ambiguous, emphasizing individual memory within shared spaces. Formally and aesthetically, his practice reflects a sustained engagement with the history of photography.

After completing a bachelor’s degree in communications, he attended a masterclass in documentary photography in Sweden in 2005. His first photobook, Good Dog, was published by Filigranes Éditions in 2012 in conjunction with his first exhibition. Subsequent bodies of work include Marseille (2014) and Walking (Vichy) (2015), alongside a sustained focus on the photobook as a primary medium.

His publications include Good Dog (Filigranes Éditions, 2012), Marseille (le bec en l’air, 2014), Walking (Filigranes Éditions, 2015), PUT (Fail Books, 2017), Oculus (Galerist, 2017), Tourmaline (InCadaques Festival Publications, 2020), and Tumult (Galerist, 2023). He lives and works in Istanbul.
