Belgin Bozsahin was born and raised in Istanbul, Turkey, and has lived in London for more than three
decades.
She exhibited in Istanbul, London, Bergen and on the QE2 liner. Many of her works are in private collections
both nationally and internationally.
She is an Arts4Giving artist who supports peace and humanitarian projects worldwide.
Drawing on the themes of existence, self and identity, she creates sculptural ceramic works, installations
and wall pieces. Working with such powerful themes, she says, “I can draw on personal understanding and
knowledge that helps me relate and communicate with others. My work examines the notion of continuing
evolution and changes that things are not perfectly smooth, spotless or still. It is about the contrast
between inside and out and the tension this creates.
I look for what is most alike between us as opposed to differences because I feel this is where we meet
most easily. My work is about giving voice to this inner unity and indicating that the visible outer shell
can be penetrated with courage and clarity. I aim to achieve a sense of hope and beauty that is common to us
all. I want to touch the human heart”.
In recent years she has been working to create surfaces with layers and textures to capture a sense of
accumulation and seeking to get a sense of sight into hidden spaces on surfaces. This has evolved into
making several collections within the category of wall pieces.
