This project lies at the junction of fashion photography and typology, which I started in 2022 in Istanbul. Basically, I take pictures on Taksim Square, in the most tourist place of the city.
This project lies at the junction of fashion photography and typology, which I started in 2022 in Istanbul. Basically, I take pictures on Taksim Square, in the most tourist place of the city. Thousands of people from different parts of the world pass by me within an hour.
I don't know anything about these people and can only guess who they are, how old they are and what they do. But despite the scant information I have, all these backs seem familiar to me. It seems that I have seen many of my passers-by somewhere, each back, no matter how paradoxical it may sound, actually has its own face.
Now this is already a big project, which already has more than 200 photos, and the most beautiful thing about this story is that it can be continued indefinitely.
