LandsNude was a group exhibition presented at Artcore Gallery in Thessaloniki, Greece, in 2015. The project brought together a group of photographers developed through workshops with the curator, with whom he had been working on the relationship between the body and the natural environment. Their work was presented together in a gallery context for the first time, on an international platform outside Turkey.The exhibition's core proposition was structural: that the nude body, photographed within a landscape rather than inside a studio, ceases to be a subject isolated from context. Instead, it becomes continuous with the material world around it — rock, water, vegetation, wind. The photographs in LandsNude were made without studio lighting, without staged compositions, and without post-production intervention. What the camera recorded was what was present: a body, a place, and the light between them.Every image in the exhibition was in black and white. This was not a stylistic preference; it was a strategy to remove the chromatic register that can sentimentalise landscape photography. Without colour, the body becomes topography and the topography becomes anatomy. The question the exhibition asked — whether the nude in landscape can avoid the pastoral tradition that has shaped centuries of European art — was addressed through this tonal discipline.LandsNude was the curator's first formal curatorial project. Unlike his subsequent curatorial work in Стамбульские обнаженные натуры (Die Akt Galerie, Берлин, 2026), где он выступает в качестве единственного куратора, не выставляя свои собственные фотоработы, LandsNude placed the curator's own photographs within the selection alongside the participating photographers. The curatorial development since then, toward a clearer separation of curatorial and artistic roles, reflects a deliberate evolution in methodology across a decade of continued practice.The thematic ground explored in LandsNude has continued to develop in the curator's ongoing series Экотон, В нем расширяется исследование тела как переходной зоны между человеческой и нечеловеческой средой.Selected Works & Exhibition Documentation
