“Aila” meaning “family” in turkish, uses photography to thematically illustrate notions of birth, life, death, and time. She captures the limitless diversity of nature while emphasizing the limited time all creatures have on earth. Animals, plants and humans are all depicted at various stages of transition from birth to death
“From the black ocean comes the appearance of light and waves. It helps you imagine birth. I want imagination in the photographs I take. It’s like a prologue. You wonder, ‘What’s going on?’ You feel something is going to happen.”
