Born in Istanbul in 1956, the artist finished her secondary and upper secondary education at Atatürk Deneme Kız Lisesi (later Beşiktaş Anadolu Lisesi) and went to Marmara Universitesi İktisadi ve Ticari Bilimler Fakültesi İşletme Bölümü (Marmara University, Business and Administration Department)
As she had become aware of her passion for art, she conducted her education to fulfil her needs satisfying her talent and took philosophy, History of Religions, Mythology, History of Art and Psychology courses from various professors. She participated in many seminars and workshops on these disciplines.
Between the years 1991—1994, she took the basic art courses at Kasim Kocak Art Studio.
In 1994, she set up her own art studio.
She held her first personal exhibition at Kare Art Gallery in 1999. She has held numerous personal exhibitions and joined many group exhibitions.
Being a member of AIAP (Association Internationale des Arts Plastiques), the artist keeps working at her studio in İstanbul.
As the artist, since she started working on her art, has been questioning being a human, managing to remain as a human, the body, the concept of beauty, the power matters, the place of human being in the society and in nature, the dark side of human being, what has been inherited generations after generations, stuck clichés, tailored identifications, and being able to survive -- conscious of her mortality; she has been trying to reach a concrete visual quality, having started from an abstract idea, asking the question if it is possible to reach the pervious boundaries by knocking down the walls of loneliness and destruction.
In her studio — she calls it ‘my playground’, pursuing the pathfinders in the individual’s dreams which are the most serious commitment of Naskapi Indians, and just as Naskapi Indians enduringly form their contents using art, she keeps her searches trying to exhibit very human memory potential hidden in the art and nature.
The artist, who considers her art and her intrinsic process as the inseparable whole, endeavours to create genuine and close-to-life Works. She makes the spectators feel the power and significance of the complemental past
