“ Art is an idea that becomes an object , noise , smell or even a taste using any and all forms .”
Such is the wholesome belief of Aziz Ozgur Dogan , a digital artist from Queens , New York , who takes a holistic approach to creative selfexpression .
From his education in Computer Science , his stint as a web developer , his culinary profession and his pursuit of digital art , Dogan is a versatile creative with the urge to express in multiple ways .
“ Cooking and food is the ultimate form of art ; it stimulates all of the senses ,” Dogan explained . For the most part , Dogan works in the restaurant he co-owns with his wife and sister , taking advantage of slower periods during the day to hone his digital editing skills . Using his iPhone 6 and a long list of iOS apps like Mextures , LensLight , Trimaginator and iColorama , Dogan spends an average of one to two hours re-working an image .
