Mustafa Dedeoğlu is an Istanbul-based photographer. He has been working with photography since 2006, when he began walking through Istanbul and photographing what he noticed for himself.
His work focuses on human presence, everyday life and the atmosphere of the places he walks through. He does not decide in advance whether a photograph will be in colour or in black and white; the light, the composition and the subject decide. His photographs have been published on local and international art platforms and exhibited in Europe, Asia and the United States, including in Prague, Warsaw, Barcelona, Shanghai and Tehran.
His series GAMBLE follows street card games in Kutaisi and Tbilisi, Georgia.
