About
Born in Istanbul in 1980, the artist graduated from the Painting Department of Marmara University's Faculty of Fine Arts in 2013. Since her student years, she has participated in numerous group exhibitions, including two international ones.
In 2015, she was appointed as a color specialist by Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University and, as part of a social responsibility project, volunteered to teach basic art and design classes to teachers and students in primary schools.
Coming from the Bauhaus school, the artist creates a metaphor of Time/Space/Memory with the colorful plate textures on her abstract surfaces, thus designing the concept of time as an infinite and dynamic space. In doing so, she critiques the status of women in society and aims to convey the anthropological struggle of identity and inequality from history to the present.
Inspired by Malevich's thought process, the artist first liberated art from the weight of objects. Then, ironically, she places the weight of a realistic figure or object at the center of the abstract surface, thereby making her ideas readable and emphasizing that art should be functional. As Picasso said, "Painting is a weapon." Her art touches on surrealism with realistic figures on abstract surfaces and, using geometric elements, she considers her paintings to be hybrid.
