In ATATÜRK’S PERSPECTIVE

“To see me does not necessarily mean to see my face. If you understand my ideas, my feelings  if you truly feel them  that is enough.”

— Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

 

One of the most distinctive aspects of this artwork is that Atatürk’s figure can only be clearly perceived from a specific angle — the one from which the photo was taken. From other angles, the figure appears merely as a human form.This reflects the idea that only those who can view the world through Atatürk’s own perspective — those who can understand his thoughts and emotions — can truly see and feel him.
