494. ART MEETING

In our 494th art meeting, we visit artist Çağla Ulusoy.


Çağla Ulusoy (b.1989, Istanbul) moved to New York to attend classes at the Student's League of New York. Here, she met the American artist Pat Lipsky, one of the world's leading artists in the field of color in painting, who mentored her for two years, and by having the opportunity to study and work alongside him, Ulusoy developed her own technique. In 2018, she completed her master's degree in painting at the Royal College of Art in London. The artist lives and works in Istanbul.


Having lived and studied in many countries, Ulusoy's paintings are a distinct blend of different cultures. The artist never ceases to cross borders and embrace the foreign elements, histories and traditions she encompasses. Çağla Ulusoy's painting practice intertwines a rich sense of color with a unique style that emphasizes the surface of the canvas. In her approach to painting, Ulusoy plays with the idea of layers of color accumulating on the surface of the canvas to create ambiguous spaces. In his abstract and complex compositions, the artist reinterprets and recreates real memories and images from the past that have affected his consciousness.
