About the Item

Ahmet Güneştekin (born December 22, 1966) is a visual artist of Kurdish descent, whose works span painting, conceptual art and constructions sculpture. Güneştekin uses a unique technique with an individual method and precision. After establishing a complex web of black acrylic paint, he fills each of the small spaces with a layer of oil paint, ranging from the light to the dark. Then, using a sort of pen with a rubber tip, he engraves into the paint, and writes as a calligrapher would on a book. He writes on his paintings by removing material, a principle which has more in common with sculpture than painting.
