POSTERS PRINTED AND DISPLAYED AT CADVC - VISUAL ARTS EXHIBITION, BALTIMORE MD
NARRATIVEs
With my narratives, I wanted to create a story in which you first travel to the location to relax, you enjoy swimming, and you visit the tidepools at the beach.
1. "LET'S GET A BEER AND WATCH THE SUNSET"
You live in the city, always noisy, always busy. It is hard to relax in your
day-to-day life. You escape this routine by going to Dogankent and watching the sunset as you enjoy a nice cold beer.

2. "DUBA" (TURKISH NAME FOR THE FLOATING PLATFORM AT SEA)
You are swimming in the clear blue sea of Dogankent, and instead of returning to the beach to rest, you climb the "duba" and stare towards the vastness of the sea, realizing how small you are on this giant blue sheet.
3. "IKINCI KOY" (REFERS TO THE TIDEPOOLS OF DOGANKENT)
As you explore the tidepools, you slowly start noticing the abundant life forms around you; urchins, crabs, shrimps, and various other shellfish,
all very unique and exciting to look at.

Concept SKETCHES // PROCESS
My initial action to come up with some concepts was to list out key words I associated with the location. Later, I picked out some of these words and quickly created thumbnail sketches of various poster ideas relating to the words. Finally, I picked out 5 or so of my favorite concepts, and digitally created higher-fidelity sketches that would later become the 3 final posters.
