Artist: Eser Meriç Cantürk

Behind our mosaic tables is an independent artist working in Istanbul. Across painting, printmaking and mosaic, Eser Meriç Cantürk treats the surface as a layered space that carries traces of time, ritual and collective memory.

Biography

Born in Istanbul in 1969, Eser Meriç Cantürk graduated from the Painting Department of Marmara University Faculty of Fine Arts. Her master’s thesis, “The Influence of African Masks on Contemporary Art”, became a turning point that shaped the conceptual side of her work.

She works between the slowness of handcraft and a contemporary visual language, turning glass and stone into new wholes in mosaic tables, mirrors, wall panels and site-specific pieces. She works from her studio in Istanbul.

Exhibition: IAAF Istanbul 2025

Her works, shaped around ritual, origin and collective memory, were shown in the group exhibition at the 6th IAAF Istanbul Art and Antiques Fair at Lütfi Kırdar ICEC on 4-7 December 2025. All 12 works are at esercanturk.com/2025.
