Bio: I am a printmaker and paper folder who focuses on the cartography of personal metaphors. As a Turkish-American, I was trained as an architect, which lends an element of structure to my work. My art is not only telling my story but also speaks to our human commonalities. Literature, poetry, and everyday objects becomes my fuel and inspiration to create these multi media works.
