Content | Book creates space to ponder period of life, where experience and joy are juxtaposed with stereotypes related to inevitability and senility. In works exhibited, senility is perceived as a period of gained experience, memory, reflections, dignity and courage. Contemporary society is inseparable from social networks and cult of youth, however this cult exposes problem of aging society. This inevitable process is considered as something that should be stopped or reversed. Fragility, decay and mortality becomes synonyms of senility, although they represent just a tiny fraction of this period of life. Bahadir Aksan is a photographer residing in Turkey, that seeks to represent and pay attention to marginalized people. In recent years B. Aksan actively participated in group and solo photography and photography books’ exhibitions in Turkey and abroad. Dummy of the book advanced to the lists of finalists in several competitions and in Self Publishing Riga competition in 2018 dummy of photobook Daffoil won the main prize. |
