In my art, I often find inspiration in literary works, films, events, scents, or memories. Creating an energy and atmosphere that captivates the viewer is very important to me. I use colours to best convey this atmosphere, and colour is an indispensable element for me.

By using geometric, architectural, and mystical forms, I reflect the shapes that have been the cornerstone of art since ancient civilizations in my works. I believe that mathematics, especially geometry, is an essential part of life and an indispensable element in all forms of art, including painting. I think mathematics has a very important place in the universe we live in.

In my art, I aim to combine the traces of the past with modern aesthetics, taking the viewer on a mystical and enchanting journey. The emotion and feeling of the painting are paramount to me, and therefore, I strive to create a strong impact on the viewer through the use of colour and shapes.

Graduated from the Painting Department of Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University in 1992. Completed a Master's Degree in Painting from the same university in 1995. Received Proficiency in Art in Painting from Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University in 2007. Studied Engraving and Lithography during her studies.
