BIOGRAPHY

She was touched by her mother’s Art classes as a kid. Music and painting were the atmosphere of their house. So, she got her B.A. in Graphic design and M.A. in Illustration to continue her passion. She tried to find a way between different art forms that she has known to express herself, from Illustration and Painting to Photography and Video Art and Installation.So, there is a dynamic exchange between what she does and Contemporary art. Diversity, Integration, Local, International and Human relation with community or Sexuality, Plants and Environment are main thoughts of her Artworks.
