Exclusive Interview with Yusuf Altay – Artist\/Painter<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Yusuf Altay was born on 18th of February 1968 in Samankaya village, but then his parents moved to Mersin. He lived in Mersin for a while. When he was 3-4 years old he used to play with mud. He made people out of mud. He used to make his own toys from mud. But then he started to primary school and learned how to hold a pencil, he didn’t guess he will make such drawings. Later he started to make colorful drawings, than he realized it touches his heart to do so. He was kind a feel in love with it. He continued doing this until 5th grade. But he had to leave the school because of some financial problems. They were 6 brothers. He had to work in the industrial area. He used make and sell his drawings to students until he gets 18 years old. He went to do his military duty in 1988. He drawed in his friend\u2019s memory books in military service. He left military duty in 1990 and went to Saudi Arabia for work. He made some drawings in there too but never sold them. In 2018 he started to a course and learned paint mixing. He knew he will paint great things because he was doing it with love and passion. And finally he made my first oil paint, it was too interesting. Now he continues both painting and his job as a repairman. Because according to him, art is love and it is refined in his blood and soul. He says without art he feels empty inside. He is 52 years old now, and everything continues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    NY Glam: What role does the Artist have in Society?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Art is a creative work produced by mankind, and it is one of party of the human culture. Because it is a way for man to express what is inside him, and not a way to express his needs for the requirements of life., although some scholars see art as very important in human life, and its importance is no less than the importance of food and drink. Art is a creative work produced by man through the formation of materials and shapes to express his thoughts, translate his feelings, or what he sees around him. Individual life and society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
