Abstract Artist
“Poetry flows, painting flows... Let yourself dive into this madness... Let it flow from shape to form to texture to color through your feelings... Just as life flows...”
Çağla Saydağ Karter is an artist working in the field of abstract art whose practice explores cosmological cyclic order and entropic disorder through a visual language. In addition to Turkey, she has participated in various workshops and artistic programs in the United States, Russia, and the United Arab Emirates. She completed the Proficiency in Art (PhD equivalent) program in Painting and Plastic Arts at Yeditepe University Faculty of Fine Arts in 2025.
Through collage, fractal geometry, and circular forms, Karter visualizes the rhythm of the universe and the cyclical nature of life, questioning the holistic and relational connection between humanity and the cosmos. Her works have been exhibited in solo and group exhibitions and art fairs in Istanbul, Dubai, Varna, Kyiv, and Bodrum.
Karter’s artistic practice centers on universal rhythm, cosmological cyclicality, and the visual diversity generated by entropic structures. In her abstract paintings, she conceptually engages with natural dynamics, the visual potential of fractal geometry, and disorder shaped over time. Her works establish a perceptual and experiential relationship with the viewer, forming a multi-layered structure that interrogates the permeable boundaries between cosmic order and chaos.
