Press Release


"No Need to Tell a Story" is an exploration of the power of visual storytelling. Yilmaz's works transport the audience into a realm of imagery where narrative is unnecessary – his art speaks for itself. Through a masterful interplay of colours, textures, and shapes, Yilmaz encourages viewers to delve into their own interpretations, finding personal connections without being confined to a predetermined storyline. He defines himself as a portrait artist and finds significance and expression in one's hands or sitting position. But the eyes remain most significant to him.  He believes he is successful if a person is briefly hypnotized by looking at one of his paintings. 

Yilmaz's unique style harmonizes abstraction and realism, resulting in an enigmatic fusion that captivates the imagination. The intermingling of vivid hues and gentle brushstrokes creates an atmosphere that is simultaneously dreamlike and rooted in reality. Each piece seems to possess a life of its own, inviting viewers to explore the depths of their emotions and inner thoughts. 

"No Need to Tell a Story" is more than just an art exhibition; it's an invitation to witness the world through the eyes of an artist who seeks to blur the lines between the seen and the unseen. Yilmaz's art reminds us that there are endless stories hidden within each of us, waiting to be unlocked and shared.
