About

Serdar Akdeniz is a contemporary artist whose work focuses on surface, time, and material formation.

My work begins with an attention to surfaces. These surfaces are first encountered during walks through urban and natural environments, where traces of time are observed and collected before being reconstructed digitally.

Rather than pursuing a fixed medium or style, my practice follows a way of perceiving. Each work or series becomes a site of exploration where surface, atmosphere and temporal traces intersect. These elements are not isolated; they reveal quiet relationships and resonances that exist between things.

What appears as erosion, aging or decay often carries its own form of beauty. I am drawn to these moments where change leaves visible marks on the surface of the world — moments in which form becomes a record of time.

My work is therefore not an attempt to represent objects, but to observe processes. Through drawing, material experiments and archival pigment prints, I explore how surfaces hold memory and how atmosphere shapes perception.

Across different materials and scales, the underlying question remains the same: how can harmony emerge from the slow interactions between surface, time and atmosphere?

Minimal Poise is the platform through which these investigations are shared.

Weathered walls, mineral textures, aging materials, atmospheric layers — these are not simply visual motifs but traces of longer processes unfolding in the world. I am interested in the subtle transformations that occur when matter is exposed to time, environment and interaction.
