Statement

I am an interdisciplinary designer from Istanbul, Turkey. My work is heavily inspired and informed by mythology, philosophy and interaction design. I hold a BSc in Nutrition and Dietetics therefore, curiosity and aptitude for science has always been present throughout my artistic journey.

During my graduate study, I worked on a series of projects consisting of creative coding, soft robotics, sculpture, animation, and illustration. Combining art and science is an overarching motivation I have in my work, and it is the liminal area between the two that I’ll continue to discover to explore questions posed by philosophy, and anthropology.
