About

After nearly 15 years in the creative industry, Ömer now dedicates his focus towards an artistic career in constant evolution. He continuously reinvents himself through exploration, refusing to be confined by a single medium, title, or predefined identity.

As an Austrian with Turkish roots, it has always been a matter of great importance for Ömer to empower people of color, namely motivating the younger generations to engage with art and culture and find their voice through creativity. This pursuit led him to found and co-publish two digital media magazines, which celebrate the various contemporary arts and cultures from Berlin to Baghdad.

Ömer's ideas are expressed beyond the camera lens or any tool of choice. The inspiration for his works thrive within urban landscapes as he captures lived experiences. These fleeting moments are raw, unpolished – often brutalist in aesthetic to provoke a message – yet remain deeply intimate.

Ömer approaches his craft with humility and reverence, believing that art, beyond its messages and critiques, can also simply be fun. It is the artistic process, not the result, that matters after all — and he is determined to keep moving.
