“designing clothes and accessories by adding yarns, fabrics, and beads to each other, creating spaces by bringing people together through artistic expressions.. my main joyy in this playground is to engage(: i like to play, enjoyed different disciplines and matters by my hands and i worked with people together.

i value combinations, options and ways of thinking,, creativity. with my background of teacher training highschool& preschool education at bogazici university, i had experience to understand from a child mind. lately, I have been studying xd at FU Berlin, working full time as a tailor, as an awareness team member and assisting exhibition spaces, embracing collaborative efforts(;”





“I am an interdisciplinary artist and researcher based in Barcelona. I mainly use collective memories through cuisines, ritual practices, practices of regeneration and kinship, queer ecologies, and installations, and I engaged with forms of knowledge that exceed the dichotomies of modernity, heteronormative and Western knowledge. Besides installations, my projects are in public space, video, and analogical drawings like pastels and watercolors. Alongside my interdisciplinary work, my academic background improves my artistic methodology.

I graduated from the economics department at Boğaziçi University and am now studying master’s degree in Political Ecology, Degrowth, and Environmental Justice at Barcelona Autonomy University. I focus on the institutional structure of art by investigating alternative economics models through commons and care, and my research on gender theory and ecology also is the main inspiration knowledge resource for me to work on socially engaged art.”

‘’my main hexing items are needles, spraycans, brushes, fruits, veggies, garbage, things&things+morethings, silicon+gun, whatever surfaces and screens to delve into the digitalland, AI hold my hand. I do visual stuff, write silly fables, and creepy poems. I like to play w random found objects with a buzzzz.

my academic journey started at boğaziçi university studying psychology, disrupted due to the politically distressing consequences of my active participation to Bogaziçi Resistance via bounsergi art collective , continued at Bard College Berlin where I studied arts and aesthetics. currently I am back in Bogaziçi University set to graduate in june 2025. i aim to pursue a masters degree in neuroscience, so lets see...

street walls and human skins are my favorite surfaces, and i like words when they are alined in a way that gets you itchy and ticklish at the same time.’’





“I explore the interplay between appropriated imagery and the transformation of visual materials through handweaving, stitching, welding, molding, sculpting, and collecting. This convergence serves as a metaphorical foundation, allowing narratives to emerge as extensions of the human form itself.

Within these visual representations, one can discern the visceral aftermath of corporeal disintegration—a captivating celebration of anatomical incompleteness shaped by the constructs of language and society. Central to these narratives is the concept of the body as a realm of deceptive perceptions and profound misunderstandings.

The body’s role as a site of continuous miscomprehension is uncovered, revealing the dichotomy between its subjective reality and the distorted lenses through which it is often perceived.”

‘’Either born April 3 or April 5, 2000, or not born at all. Somewhere between 5 and 7 feet tall, weighing…, enough to keep grounded. Hair? Yes. Eyes? Occasionally closed. Background? Boundless. Beliefs? Whatever the body tells.

It’s rare that a day goes by without a movement—or the impulse to move—whether it’s in dance or in a quiet room, exploring the borders of space and sound. Improvisation is second nature, maybe even first. I’ve been called ‘obsessed with the body,’ ‘lost in spatial memory,’ and ‘somewhere between presence and performance.’

Sometimes I’ll spend hours just existing in the exchange between sound and movement, somewhere in the space where body and mind intersect. If you see me, I’m likely somewhere between here and there, asking if the body knows something we’ve forgotten to learn’’




“I am involved in visual arts, especially photography. Poetry and literature greatly influence my way of expression and experience.
I seek alternative forms of expression that question the hierarchical relationship resonating within language and images.

Magic, memories, and elements of nature play significant roles in my artistic expression.
I am actively engaged in civil society initiatives, harboring a belief in the transformative power of art.”

“The complexity of random occurrences, the delicate fracturing of conventional boundaries, and the transcendence of perception interplay with my production process. I am allured by exploring the subtle nuances of the unpredictable tapestry of existence in the tides of improvisational fluidity through the mediums of cut-up composition & randomization of sounds, improvisational music itself, and also photography & collage.

My main instruments are violin, vocal, and bass. Along with the electroacoustic works I have been producing since early 2023, my interest in experimental electronics, bass & improvised music has been growing for a few years. I am currently a master student of Sonic Arts at İtü Miam after graduating from Boun Psychology. I am 1/2 of the in-the-making shoegaze-breakbeat band @seasidesuicide_.I have also been into DJing for a year, which has grown along with my interest in digging and mixing songs."

“Emerging through conceptual art, I’ve maintained an interdisciplinary approach and have been producing across an ever-expanding array of mediums, predominantly incorporating new media over time. My artistic pursuits primarily revolve around crafting unsettling spectacles from discordant objects and constructing speculative narratives concerning cyborg, post-humanism, queer ecology, and the anthropocene. While participating in a multitude of international exhibitions, I’ve thrived to persisting a poised presence in both underground and institutional spheres, among them İstanbul Modern, Sonar, and İstanbul Design Museum.

Aligned with my artistic practice, I’ve engaged in curation, UX design for virtual museums, and XR consultancy, which allowed me to interact with fellow creatives and foster enriching collaborations akin to our beloved art collective that I’m part of with growing elation for three years.”





“After studying Psychology at Boğaziçi University, I am currently continuing my Cognitive Neuroscience master degree in Berlin. I strive to understand the impact of language on thought, its restrictiveness and enrichment, and the possibility of communication. I enjoy thinking about the possible ways stories can be told, and this is fundamental to my perspective on art.

I believe that unity/political unity, magical realism, feminism, and the shifted way of doing in playing/acting have the ability to disrupt the perceived ways of things. I get inspired by other art forms when they present a similar feeling& love to be surprised – sometimes even be disappointed. As a medium, I currently find organic materials, textile pieces, digital modeling, and experiential works very exciting.”
