'A painter, after all, takes the time to study their subject, to break it apart and put it back together, layer by layer. Pamuk's way of writing felt like that to me — always observing, always questioning, always rearranging things until they made sense in a new way. His writing captures a mix of ideas, emotions, and history that resonates with me deeply.'
