My name is Elroy Gören Serinken.
I am a fourth year Architecture student at Middle East Technical University.
I have a passion for creating art in all of its forms, from music composition to filmmaking and theater performances to abstract art.
Architectural design drives me for it is the meeting point of all art forms; it is the form of art which penetrates the body and not solely the mind.
Aside from my pursuit of art, I enjoy spending my time outdoors to swim and play team sports.
