I am a Turkish artist-photographer based in Sheffield, UK. I hold a chemical engineer degree and completed MBA masters in 2003. After working as a manager for 5 years, I moved to Sheffield and restart my life as a wife of a street entertainer. Which lead me to become a street entertainer-circus-nightclub performer. When he turned out to be bipolar, alcoholic and violent, I've moved on and re-invented myself as an artist-photographer. I was raised by my religious grandmother who was a dressmaker for brothels in Adana, Turkey and my bank manager atheist single mother. This is my show. Interview with creative people who found themselves living on the margins-fringes of urban.
Currently, my mixed media abstract paintings and photographs are being exhibited in 3 continents. This is my project which I believe could help people to understand themselves better, which leads to a harmonious success and contentment.
