SPACE ARTIST NAZ KÖKBUDAK

As an individual artist, Naz Kökbudak reflects the "Turkish Evil Eye Bead", or the Eye of the Universe, which she has deeply abstracted philosophically and artistically in her works, on wood or canvas with a different interpretation by the artist. The artist adds three dimensions to the works by using many shades of blue. The reason she uses gold leaf in her works is that gold means abundance. The optical illusions and geometric forms she creates in her works using wood, acrylic and resin with a unique technique and color selection tell the inner journey of man and the cycle of the universe.

The reason why each evil eye bead she designs is different and personalized is that each person's evolutionary journey is different.

After The Eye of The Universe, the artist abstracted The Sun, Mars, Venus and Meteor by adding her own interpretation. The artist continues her abstraction works by adding her own interpretation to the stars and planets in the Universe.

After graduating from Saint Joseph High School, she graduated from the Department of Interior Architecture at Yeditepe Fine Arts Faculty (2007). She worked in international architecture offices. Combining her artistic talent with a design perspective, and adding the experience and vision she gained from her business life; she produces three-dimensional works by bringing together different materials, colors, textures and design techniques in the field of art. She has participated in many mixed exhibitions in Istanbul. Her works are exhibited in many galleries abroad. The artist continues her art productions and projects on domestic and international platforms.
