Biography
As an inquisitive international artist, Didem Yagci emphasizes the purpose of human existence in her artwork. She questions deeply in philosophical and artistic terms, and the universal reality of our existence on the path of evolution that we experience in this lifetime. Believing that there is a divine system that everyone is involved, the artist produces layered sculptures with the idea that the experiences in our lives are steps that carry us from one place to another, and that this experience progresses in infinite cycles.
The awareness that we gain from the circumstances and people we experience in our lives contributes to our evolution. When we change our point ofĀ view, a new behavior emerges, and this new level of awareness takes us toĀ the next level in our life journey. Thus, we no longer experience the same circumstances and people. The overlapping, repetitive, twisting, and intersectingĀ layers seen in the artistās works refer to this cycle through the careful use ofĀ materials and colors.
Optical illusions and geometric forms, created by using wood and plaster inĀ her works with a unique technique and color selection, express the achievements of a person in her inner journey in an abstract and metaphorical way.
After graduating from the Department of Chemistry at Bosphorus University,Ā she received a European Union Scholarship (2010) and studied āContemporary Art and Designā at the London College of Fashion.
She produces 3D abstract forms by combining her artistic talent with science and analytical perspective, adding her experience & vision she gained from business life.
