“A hidden moment behind a window; two silhouettes, A warmth inside, night outside.
The window is not just a frame, it is a silent witness looking from the outside into the intimacy of love. The two figures standing in embrace protect both their inner worlds and the space they have established together. This scene under the light is an expression of both a simple and infinite closeness.
“Bakırköy Night”
