Featured article

“The Story of Real Food Begins in the Soil”

İstiklal Gazetesi · Talip Bayram · 13 September 2026

In his İstiklal column, Talip Bayram wrote about the “Gerçek Gıdanın Hikâyesi” (The Story of Real Food) panel at Foodist İstanbul 2026. At the session organised by AGAFED I talked about how we grow at Şifa Köyü, our organic produce and heirloom seeds; chefs Aydın Demir and Zeki Kara cooked with that produce, and Özlem Mekik moderated.

Healing Art By Healing Hands

My first solo exhibition

Healing Art By Healing Hands

Artopol Gallery, 42 Maslak · November and December 2024

I showed my Healing Art paintings together for the first time. More than thirty five works were on view for two months at Artopol Gallery in Maslak, Istanbul.

I do not paint with a brush. I put the colour on my fingers and touch the canvas. Every painting carries an intention, and that intention usually decides who it goes to.
