"Among all genres and directions, abstract painting is my sanctuary where I can release control and simply create. They call my works expressive, vibrant, and extraordinary, but to me, they are a reflection of my state of mind, a sudden snapshot of what excites and delights. I’m told they are saturated with the sunlight and my sense of humor, and then I answer: “So what I create will serve as support for someone.”
I can’t see the point in dull tones and vague contours. For me, it's all about the flash, the emotional peak, the flight. I blend pure geometric abstractions with patterns and quite recognizable characters. I love to experiment and never limit myself to just a palette of paint and brushes. There is everything in my studio — aerosol cans, stencils, pastels and ink, colored crayons and all sorts of artistic materials. And I combine, mix, and complement them all in my art."
Farida is a well-known painter, muralist from Türkiye. Her canvases grace exhibitions in Antalya and Istanbul, as well as private collections in Ankara, Izmir, Bodrum and beyond, spanning the European Union, Georgia and the USA. Born in Central Asia, she pursued her artistic education there but eventually moved to Turkey to forge her path as an artist.
Her artistic direction lies in space embellishment and crafting monumental modern figures. Her works can be seen in malls, theme parks, hotels, exhibitions and cultural festivals. Always extraordinary, her creations captivate the eye. Fairy-tale characters standing up to 5 meters tall, forest spirits, handcrafted mountains and waterfalls, Venetian gondolas and giant clocks — Farida's ideas truly know no bounds.
As a painter, Farida creates a series of expressive abstract paintings following the method of intuitive creativity, as well as representational paintings inspired by her travels on motorcycle. Seas, mountain lakes, waterfalls and gorges become a source of inspiration for her art. Her pieces are born through innovative techniques and the fusion of paint application methods. These canvases hold great appeal for modern collectors.
