Qohen Leth: What I'm living for?

- Management: That's a good question Mr Leth, posed entirely to the wrong person. You see, it seems you've mistaken me for a considerably higher power. I'm not the source of your call. I'm not God or the Devil, I'm just a man ... seeking the truth.”

Photographer: Görkem Keser "When I saw what this world was like, such a sadness came over me that I was crushed like a flower under it. that's why I have neither fragrance nor color left in this blue world. I am a dried flower not between two pages of a notebook but among millions of people."

"What is society but an individual? The ocean is not society; it is individuals. This was how I managed to gain a modicum of freedom from my terror at the illusion of the ocean called the world" -Dazai

"Time will pass and if you survive in this world of a thousand misfortunes buried within itself, you will eventually wither away. You will be in the middle of your life and you will have nothing to gain but the desert inside you. Your hands are empty"

Journey of Spirits: Lost Portraits Between Life and Death

This project is designed to remind us of the inevitability of death and to support an antinatalist perspective. Antinatalism acknowledges that not only refraining from reproduction, but also the fact of our natural end - death, is a reality. Bringing people into the world to face the harsh reality of death is a senseless and even cruel act.

The purpose of this project is to use old passport photos from our family to remind us of the inevitability of death and to support an antinatalist perspective. These photos represent traces of the past and our human vulnerability in the face of death. When combined with AI, ı convey a message emphasizing the inevitability of death. An antinatalist perspective encourages us to question the real purpose of human life and makes it easier for us to accept the truth that awaits us at life's end. Giving birth to people is a factor that makes their lives meaningless. This project is designed to remind us of the reality that we will face at the end of our lives and to encourage us to make our lives more meaningful.

In summary, this project aims to remind us of the inevitability of death and to support an antinatalist perspective. The antinatalist perspective, which asserts that bringing people into the world to face the harsh reality of death is senseless, encourages us to question the true purpose of human life and to make our lives more meaningful.

In various geographical regions of Turkey, from vast plains to mountainous areas, human beings occasionally confront a profound sense of solitude. This solitude is not merely a physical isolation but also intertwined with existential anguish and a quest for meaning. The tranquility and silence of landscapes in this photograph make you feel as if they are a reflection of the inner turmoil experienced by individuals. While being captivated by the enchantment of nature in this photograph, I also wanted you to sense a tinge of melancholy. In this photograph, you see a farmer burning stubble.

I wanted to use the rising smoke during the stubble burning as a symbol of the inner burning of existential pain that we experience People strive to find a balance with geographical spaces, grappling with feelings of helplessness and despair. Nature accompanies them in their internal distress, offering its own unique silence as a companion to their existential dilemmas. What I wanted to convey is that this sense of loneliness and existential angst deepens your quest for meaning as you gaze at this photograph.

"I am afraid because I can so clearly foresee my own life rotting away of itself, like a leaf that rots without falling, while I pursue my round of existence from day to day"
