Colors and recycled materials
converge in abstract paintings
with meaningful depth

Asya Alpay is a young artist from Istanbul, Turkey. Her work has previously been featured in a variety of galleries and art fairs in Istanbul, Bodrum, London, Toronto New York, Paris and Madrid. Her works were recently displayed at the ART3F Paris fair, and in August 2024, her works will be displayed in the European Museum of Modern Art in Barcelona. In the meantime, she is preparing for her first solo exhibitions in Bodrum 2024 and in Istanbul 2025.

Originally graduated from the Bogazici University Western Languages and Literatures department, she sees her art as a reflection of bipolar disorder, which she was diagnosed with in 2016. She paints abstracts where she plays with colors and materials, including recycled materials, as opposed to conventional drawing. She is a firm believer of uncertainty and personal experience in art.
