Merve Mokoc creates illustrated portraits of presumably dead people as the images have a shrine like quality about them. Other details like the comfortable poses maintained whilst having a decapitated head, or the rolled back white eyes make me think this. The pupil-less eyes are particularly freaky, the cold blank stare into nothingness that each sitters has. Mysterious numbers are given to each subject, numbers that are not a date but possibly a code, very strange indeed. Each illustration also has a specially designed frame; I do really enjoy these illustrations however odd, the simpleness yet detail is very appealing.
