Soner Ön is a born-and-bred Brooklynite who’s equally at home drawing inspiration from back issues of Richie Rich comics or Ottoman treasures in his family’s native Turkey. Ön works in collage, photography, printmaking, and paint to channel everything from the grit of his Flatbush youth to the furthest reaches of outer space. We caught up with Ön in Istanbul, where his series on MC Hammer’s gratuitous wardrobe, 5 of 10,000, is currently on display. Click here to view a slideshow of work from the series."
