In this artwork, Merve Sagit, hailing from Turkey, employs the cyanotype technique to depict carnations. Carnations, universally associated with themes of beauty and melancholy, hold cultural significance in many societies. Merve masterfully combines these floral motifs with a Turkish legacy of carnations and sorrow, mirroring her place of birth. She then infuses Japanese minimalism and miniature aesthetics, evident in the artwork's elegant lines. This fusion creates a unique visual language, where cultures converge harmoniously. In just a single canvas, Merve Sagit blends diverse influences, inviting viewers to explore the interplay of emotions and traditions that transcend borders.
Merve Sagit is a dynamic multidisciplinary artist whose innovative approach to printing has taken the art world by storm. Born in 1989 , she has rapidly gained recognition for her unique fusion of photography and the cyanotype technique, redefining traditional printing methods.
Her artistic journey has been deeply influenced by her extensive travels, particularly her Asian tour, which has left an indelible mark on her work. This influence is evident in her creations, where one can discern the clean lines of Japanese minimalism harmoniously coexisting with the rich tapestry of European impressions.
Merve's pursuit of knowledge led her to embark on a master's degree in interactive digital media, enriching her art with a diverse range of techniques that allow her to convey emotions through visuals. Her background in literature and linguistics further amplifies her artistic prowess, infusing her works with a depth of narrative and symbolism that captivates the viewer.
Merve Sagit's artistic journey is a testament to her boundless creativity and dedication to pushing the boundaries of traditional art forms. Her prints are not just visual experiences; they are windows into a world where cultures converge, emotions flow, and innovation knows no bounds.
