Meltem ŞahinIndependent Artist
I was born in Istanbul and currently living and working in Istanbul. I graduated from Mimar Sinan Fine I attempt to create a language that may not necessarily imitate real life's supposed appearances, which entertain and alienate individuals from their existences, instead, I am creating figures that have a humanistic, and sensitive approach without the hierarchy of specific race, social status, sexual orientations, or any qualifiers of beauty. Regardless of what the final medium is —animation or installations— my pieces belong to the universe where people of neon colors floating in space, will invite you to join their uncanny experience where pain and pleasure can be felt at the same time.
