GELINCIK GELIN // The Bride with Poppy flowers // 2014
She ever-changing story of eternal search
Mathilde Melek An represents this beautiful synthesis between French and Turkish Cultures; her art, itself, is part of this mixture.
An's work is not only a tie between East and West but also a tie between generations ;
She is actually bringing a new "regard", her work reflects individual and collective, traditional and modern cultural approach.
She is in a constant search to interpret different identities in an evolutionary "voyage"; she is mainly using photography and video to interpret different cultures codes and she also has her own way of photography story telling.
