Location: izmir

In the earthquake that occurred in Izmir in 2020, the apartment I lived in completely collapsed. Eighteen neighbors died there. Luckily I survived death, but all traces of my memories were buried in the rubble. Although it was a very traumatic process for me, I tried to capture images with my mobile camera as a photographer.
