ABOUT THE EXHIBIT A Sanctuary under the Cappadocian Rocks draws from a landscape shaped by ancient volcanic eruptions and slowly sculpted by wind and water into forms that feel both natural and otherworldly. Over time, people learned to inhabit this land by carving into its soft stone, creating dwellings, chapels, and hidden spaces where faith and daily life unfolded beneath the surface. As conflict and invasion returned, these carved interiors deepened into underground cities—places of refuge, concealment, and endurance. This series reflects the quiet dialogue between land and humanity, where nature becomes shelter, belief is practiced in stillness, and the earth itself holds memory, protection, and resilience.
