Ahmet
Özel has progressively reached the mental domain of the abstract,
and through an aphorism on meteors to which his canvasses are dedicated
to, he is aimed to identify his intuitions on the creation and the
nature with the progression of human existence.
It
is possible to assume that Ahmet Özel may be seeking those exclusive
clues of the mysteries which lie between the right and the balanced,
and a meaningful chaos, within the complexities stirred in his soul
by these native myths.
