Printemps des Artistes

Originally a science graduate from Adana, Emine resumed her studies at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Mersin University and graduated in 2007.

​

Her works, both original and unique, are conceived using carefully selected images from different source materials (newspapers, photos, paintings, wallpaper, etc).

​

Using the collage technique, she blends the visuals of the city with the historical and societal elements of Istanbul. Both challenging and intriguing, from a distance the paintings have a holistic and aesthetic harmony but on closer observation the viewer is called upon to witness  the difficulties of living in the city and in society today.
