Abstract

In the period of Huns in Turkish painting, the enthusiasm in the paintings containing animal struggles and Uygur murals in the colors and lines of the so-called animal Styles shows that there is always a surreal aspect. Mehmet Siyah Kalem can be thought of using the visual aspect of the game, perhaps hijin, or perhaps teaching by exaggerating the plastic values coming from the depths of the Türk art with his own interpretation.Animal and human mixture, face masks reminiscent of creatures dancing, drinking, wrestling, horse and human abduction, as well as scenes of sacrifice to God, rituals, religious scenes have been examples. The Mehmet Siyah Kalem, which was liked by Picasso and influenced by Goya, aroused curiosity in the West. In fact, a reason why the Black Pencil is so curious is that it does not belong to any style and with different interpretations it brings the miniatures closer to the art of painting (https://oggito.com/icerikler/cinlerin-efendisi-mehmet-siyahkalem-/10272(see). In the figures of Mehmet Siyah Kalem, trans-state can be considered as a reflection of shaman belief.
