All the Eyes I’ve Been – Mixed Media Eye Art by Ilgaz Kuren, Surreal Abstract Portrait in Gaze, Alien Vision, and Identity Fragmentation

Description: Title: All the Eyes I’ve Been Artist: Ilgaz Kuren Year: 2025 Medium: Mixed media on canvas Dimensions: 11 x 14 inches ⸻ A chorus of eyes—human, animal, alien, imagined—stare back with memory, perception, and fractured truth. Each is a different version of self or a gaze cast upon it. Some shimmer like galaxies. Others slit like predators. Some weep. Some wink. Some simply watch. This isn’t about being observed. It’s about seeing—too much, too many, too often. The chaotic grid holds no symmetry, no order—only instinct, memory, and identity in motion. Every eye is painted with intention: a reaction, a mask, a flash of vulnerability or power. Together, they form a self-portrait through multiplicity. 👁️ 13 unique glass/resin eyes affixed by hand 🌈 Animal, fantasy, doll-like, and cosmic irises 🔮 Neurodivergent expression through repetition and variation 🎨 Vibrant mixed media gestures: linework, strokes, scribbles 📍Handmade in San Francisco by Ilgaz Kuren This is not just a painting. It’s a map of every gaze you’ve ever had to hold.
