Hi, My Name Is Moto!
I do stuff and call it art.
Over 30 years ago, friends started to call me Moto for a weird reason: I was a young guy tinkering around with CPUs and graphics processors, exploring the creative possibilities of that new fancy digital stuff.
In times where Atari and Amiga were giants of digital creativity, I got lucky enough to get some results out of my Amiga - that was powered by 68k Motorola CPUs. My passion towards computers and their creative use got me to a certain level of obsession, which then led a few friends of me call me Moto.
And here is me. Avec ma première exposition d'art. Hayat Bir Sanat.
Hayat Bir Sanat
Why shouldn't we see ourselves, our lives as art? Something special and unique. With efforts, challenges, fantasies, techniques, desires and many colors.
You're invited to dive into that thought for yourself. Take a short break from what you're doing and have a dance with your own moments in life.
And that is where my art dances as well. On that fine line where we all balance ourselves with the gifts and challenges of life. Where we have days of hugging happiness with laughter and sparkling joy - or - battle ourselves through a grey day. That's what's called life. A life like art.
In a same way as art is perception & interpretation in our world, smiling and laughing are like a the pen and color that paints the art. A smile might come from the purest freedom of spirit. Yet, a smile might come from a painfully suffering spirit as well. We all have many smiles. All different.
If I could wish for anything to happen to anyone, then I‘d wish them to never let go of the capacity of warming an aura with a smile, no matter the circumstances.
Please. Have A Seat
Whoever has a some fancy weird artist name, probably has a fancy weird real name as well, isn't it? So, let me introduce myself again. Once more.
My name is Ilker Cetinkaya. I am "Moto Collins". And other things.
I've been into IT my entire life. In my first 10 years as a professional I tinkered around coding in whatever language on whatever platform I saw. Then, for more than a decade now, I kept myself busy with digital product development, modern management & agile organizations.
Today I am a independent consultant & coach for modern companies with digital products, specializing in agile methods, product development & management.
At the beginning of those cautious times with pandemic curfews, I discovered painting and art with my ex-partner. A fun creativity moment at home! My brain began to invest more and more energy into it. Fast forward to today. Here's some stuff I did.
It's a true honor and pleasure to have you!
