Ogulcan Arslan

Ogulcan Arslan is currently studying at Marmara University’s Department of Photography. He strives to see the ‘unknown’ in everyday life, stops to talk with people whom many would pass by. His current project is on Afghans living in Istanbul’s Vefa (meaning Fidelity in Turkish) district: an old town that is soon to be destroyed due to urban ‘renewal’. Ogulcan is passionate about documentary photography, (still) believes in the constructive power of humanity and is a proud son of two Macedonian immigrants in Turkey.
