I first encountered Irish travelers on a photography trip. Although they have a reputation for violence and criminal behavior, in my dealings with them, I found them to be generally friendly and warm-hearted people who were sadly misperceived by others. In my opinion, capturing the image and reality of travelers as we know them today is essential to collect a photographic history of a unique human being. This collection of photos represents my interactions with travelers I have seen at various stopovers and illegal camps in Galway and Limerick, outside Dublin, and the annual horse show in Ballinasloe.

The story of the Sumba Sea Tree Family.
I want to express myself through this family tree.
When human babies are born, their parents hug them;
But these trees cannot embrace the child born from their roots.
However, they are happy.
They can always look at each other and pray for each other.
Modern people are too busy and have no time to visit their families.
But don’t forget your families; Like these trees that always look at each other and pray for each other.

- Title of the photo: starling of the bunches

Flocks of starlings form incredible abstract landscapes in the sky like a great musical rhythm. In these star stocks, thousands of starlings fly in complex and coordinated patterns. Starlings do this according to the fixed number of starlings around them and without considering the overall density of the flock. This ballet is a unique dance; the birds can manage the situation harmoniously and unitedly while uncertain.
