In the age of digitalization and hyper-information, the transition with the new year, a new lifespan, passes quickly, which is usually emphasized by a special countdown before the transition to the new year.


Although man is transitional this days, in a way it is precisely this transition that we mark and freeze in our memories. It is this transition to the new year that is the topic I am working on at this year's New Year's stamp. Exploring the concept of transition and the history of marking the transition to the new year has led me to new observations regarding the transition from the old part to the new part. From this point of view, the transition can be made as a path from one “closed part” to one “open part”, which can be hypothesized both in form and in color.




















When we talk about the New Year, the feelings that reign these days are joy, surprise, admiration, optimism, love, which are also related to psychologist Robert Plutchik, who studied theories of color and emotional impact in his life. His thinking and the passages he deals with have led to the creation of a color transition characterized by shades of green, blue, red, and yellow that speak to the excitement of the arrival of something new. Each shape is shorter than the previous form in terms of the golden ratio, thus emphasizing balance and divine beauty. Opening, narrowing this format in a divine cut addresses the opening of a new day.
