About me
I grew up in a context where art is treated as a luxury rather than a necessity. It comes from a strong cultural lineage, yet sociopolitical conditions have caused that lineage to wither, leaving behind something plastic. In Turkiye, theatre audiences often fall into three groups: those who consume familiar stories to escape their own lives, those who treat theatre as elitist because they do not understand it, and a third group-nearly absent-that refuses passivity and demands transformation rather than comfort.
