Prof. Dr. Erdoğan Ergün emphasized that the convergence of different forms of artistic expression enriches both the production and perception processes. “Each artwork gains new meanings in conjunction with the space in which it is exhibited. The viewer, in turn, has the opportunity to create their own interpretation within this totality.” said Prof. Ergün, adding that it is a great source of happiness for them to bring together the works of faculty artists who blend their academic knowledge with original approaches.
