The transmission of all experiences, thoughts and emotions acquired throughout human history between generations constitutes the main dynamic of Hakan Çınar sculptures. In his sculptures, the artist searches for what the past says with the syntax of the present through the human body that thinks, sees, hears but also forgets, shows illusion as reality and changes shape. In his sculpture practice, where he prefers to emphasize moments, emotions and situations in which intergenerational transmission is interrupted, the search for a cramped order and a closed form often manifests itself as a result of this.
