The story has beenone of the oldestmethods of conveyingthingsforgenerations. Whenwefocus on its historical adventure, the story, which plays an active role in the tendency of people toconvey their lives, experiences and allvalues, makesits existence alive byincorporating new techniques in everyperiod. The story, which has continueditscycle in the life-death-life axis, has beenequipped with new techniques in everyperiod such as before oral culture, oral culture and writtenculture, digitalage, and thesetechniques have beendiversified with new forms that function as the memory of the story. In the research, the effects of the historical adventure of the story and the lives that make up stories on my own and people are examined. The works including true life experience concepts such as autobiographical memories, gender, war, marginalization, pain, melancholy, are examined in the context of art and artist. As a form of existence, the stories those form me, make sense of my life and the place I define myself exist in my artistic practices. My artistic practices, which I have integrated, shaped and made sense of with pieces of visual, auditory objects and thoughts collected from different times and places are presented with their analysis.
