About

Sema Barlas was born in Istanbul in 1954.

Her early years were in Canada where she studied at the Ottawa School of Art.

As well as her domestic and international solo exhibitions, she has participated in many competitive and group exhibitions and continues her work in her Izmir studio.

When Sema starts a painting her first lines and first colors are vibrant and vigorous like her childhood. Engaging in her art from somewhere without concern, the canvas sometimes becomes a one man show, sometimes a stage where many expressions clash.

Sema Barlas est née à Istanbul en 1954.

Ses premières années étaient au Canada où elle a étudié à l'École d'art d'Ottawa.

Outre ses expositions personnelles nationales et internationales, elle a participé à de nombreuses expositions collectives et compétitives et continue son travail dans son studio d'Izmir.

Lorsque Sema commence un tableau, ses premières lignes et ses premières couleurs sont vibrantes et vigoureuses comme son enfance. S'engageant dans son art depuis quelque part sans souci, la toile devient parfois un spectacle solo,parfois une scène où de nombreuses expressions se heurtent.
