Betül SefikaAbout

Betül Sefika is a poet, illustrator and visual artist based in Brussels. 

Her writings try to draw the formal attributes of their media into their content. Her visual work revolves mainly around materialising absence.

The requirements of a language that wants to refer to absence, without filling it’s void and becoming the subject, make that her figurative imagery is often of an intimate, airy, fragmented, deconstructed and/or small scaled quality.
