Artweeks Istanbul XII was on 15 – 26 October, 2025 at Akaretler in the Besiktas district of Istanbul. My work was represented by Galeri Bosfor.

Lodos, 2025 Stoneware, Mineral Pigments 33.5 x 18 x 21 cm (13.19 x 7.09 x 8.27 in) I am excited to present my latest work, Lodos.

I’ve recently started a new series of works titled Finding Your Way. This collection is my attempt to make sense of the daily rhythms of life and deepen the connection with my inner self. I hope these pieces will offer you a chance to quiet the noise around you and explore your own inner dialogues.
This series marks a natural progression from my earlier work. While my previous pieces incorporated functional forms like vases and bowls, they’ve since evolved into purely sculptural works. The new pieces are both abstract and figurative, much like clouds in the sky—shapes that can be interpreted in many ways. I invite you to discover your own story within them, but I also want to share what each piece means to me.

It’s such a joy to work with fellow creatives who are on the design side of things and to have the opportunity to send […]
