"With all the chaos we are living in, this is an interpretation of being in a "State of Emergency" – with some Wu-Flakes and dose of cream for a healthy revolutionary breakfast to start the day." A.S.A - This print was done during the "Gezi" uprising in the summer of 2016. . With linocut being the choice of technique it is also appropriate to say that the art of printmaking was used through out centuries to make a statement – revolt against a system – reproducing images for the masses. #osman #arisarkisalpert #arialpert

"Sıçtı cafer bez getir, sulu sıçtı tez getir" Screenprint - 2017

1/ 10 editions in green / cream / grey / red / salmon

Visual Composition

The
artwork features a high-contrast, black-and-white stenciled portrait of Donald
Trump, framed within a dark border. He is depicted wearing a traditional Turkish
primary school uniform (önlük), complete with a floral lace collar—a
symbol of childhood innocence and state-mandated discipline that contrasts
sharply with the subject's persona.

Symbolism and Foreshadowing

• The
  Fluids: Black "oil" or
  ink-like fluid weeps from his eyes and ears and drips from his mouth. In
  your artistic vision, this represents the "pollution" of the
  office or the internal mess of the administration leaking out.
• The
  "Ear" Prophecy: Remarkably, you depicted fluid
  leaking specifically from the ear back in 2016. In light of the 2024
  assassination attempt where a bullet grazed Trump's right ear, this
  element takes on an eerie, "predictive art" quality that
  your buyers have noted.
• The
  Stars: The background features
  outlined stars, nodding to the American flag but presented in a sparse,
  chaotic arrangement that mirrors the theme of a crumbling state.

The Linguistic Core

The
text framing the image is the Turkish rhyming idiom:

"Sıçtı
Cafer bez getir, sulu sıçtı tez getir."

Contextual
Meaning in Art: By applying this specific phrase to
the presidency, the artwork communicates a sense of total systemic failure.

• The
  "Mess": In Turkish culture,
  "Cafer" is a placeholder name for someone who has made a
  catastrophic blunder. By dressing him as a schoolboy, you imply that the
  leader is out of his depth, behaving like a child who has made a
  "mess" he cannot clean up.
• The
  Urgency: The second half of the phrase
  (bring the cloth quickly) acts as a desperate plea for intervention
  or a "clean-up crew" for the political and social damage being
  done.

Summary of Intent

The
piece serves as a visceral critique of leadership, suggesting that the
administration is not just failing, but doing so in a way that is
"messy," urgent, and fundamentally immature. It successfully
translates a local Turkish sentiment of frustration and impending disaster
into a global political context.
