29 · 10 · 1983Me and string art
A life empowered by art
Born on 29 October 1983 in Ereğli, Zonguldak, Nazikar Şen does not see string art as silent or still. Its sound brings calm, releases negative energy and opens a restorative space for the mind.
Rather than foregrounding technique alone, her work recalls the challenges we share as a society through an artistic language. Every hammer strike is a powerful ‘no’ to negativity.
“I reinforced it with my art and offered it to you.”
