ATLANTIS: Follow your dreams; they know the way.

12 March 2020 - 31 May 2021

Miart Gallery London is proud to present S. Bülent Sancar's exhibition - ATLANTIS: Follow your dreams; they know the way

 

The highlight of the exhibition is "Thera"- a colossal luminescent blue sculpture. It is the first sculpture of Sancar's famous ATLANTIS series, for which he later received an invitation to be exhibited in Venice. The desire to create this series came after the artist watched a documentary about the lost continent of Atlantis, the unusual architecture and sea creatures of which deeply influenced him, so he started sketching the forms he saw. 

 

The artist's favorite motto is: "Follow your dreams; they know the way. I start by dreaming and sometimes; I draw them and sometimes there is no drawing at all and I start sculpting directly. Everything else is technical issues after that. If my dreams are reflected in what I create and satisfy me then my sculpture is finished and I am ready for the new dreams."
