Copyright
A short, plain statement about what may be done with the work in this archive.
Ownership
Hakan Hısım retains copyright to all original artwork in this archive unless a specific work is explicitly stated otherwise on its own page. Copyright covers the artwork itself — the composition, imagery, and the specific execution of each piece.
Album covers and commercial works on this site were created for specific artists, bands, labels and clients. Those collaborations do not transfer ownership of the underlying work away from the artist; they are recorded here as part of the archive.
No blanket permission
Nothing on this site is released under an open licence. The work is all rights reserved. There is no Creative Commons grant, no public domain dedication, and no implied permission for commercial reuse.
Reproducing an image — including in print, merchandise, editorial, advertising, or a derivative design — requires prior written permission.
What is permitted
Without asking, you may:
- View the work on this site.
- Share links to these pages with the artist credited — the canonical address is the page, not the raw image file.
- Quote short passages from an artwork’s narrative for review, criticism or discussion, with attribution.
Please do not scrape, bulk-download, train on, or republish the image library without permission.
