With his second solo exhibition, artist Hüseyin Aksoylu examines the dynamics and causality that underlies people's adaptation process to nature and social order. The artist who has long tried to find answers to the problematic of humankind, investigates it through different artistic mediums such as canvas, video, sculpture and computer-processed images. Aksoylu, who deals with the conflict between the inborn instincts of humankind and their thought systems that has developed over time, observes a constant balance between following spontaneous impulses and adapting to factual systems of values. He returns to basic instincts in order to survive in this conflict mechanism, which can drag people into inactivity by taking the instincts under the control of common sense and reason. The stress on "hunger," which also gives the exhibition its name, is the most basic instinct that keeps humans alive and also implies our desire to return to our substantial potential.
