I named the exhibition after being inspired byone of my favourite directors Nuri Bilge Ceylan's "Winter Sleep" movie. When I think of winter, I remember memories of my childhood. Tales told by the stove on cold winter nights, our trip to the village school kilometers away in the early hours of the morning, the games we played with our friends, the closing of the village roads, desolation, silence and loneliness… I wanted to witness this silence with my photographs and host you with my childhood memories in my mind. Being a child in Anatolia means getting the innocence and purity of the abdomen.
