I am Zeynep. I am a student at Kandilli Girls' High School. I am interested in most branches of art. My goal is always to improve myself, to escape with the least damage from the pressure created by the system we live in, and to defend human and animal rights forever. If we can raise our voices, it is thanks to Gazi Mustafa Kemal, and if we cannot, it is due to our own cowardice. Art is political. One cannot be an artist without opposing oppression.
As for my own life, I am spending my youth in psychiatry corridors. In April 2025, I was hospitalized in the Bakırköy Mental and Neurological Diseases service. What heals me is not medications or doctors; it is art. I can survive with pen and paper, with poetry. As I strike the canvas with my brush, my blood flows through my veins.
I am a 10th grade student at Kandilli Girls' High School.
I have been passionate about art for as long as I can remember.
I developed mental illnesses as a result of long-term bullying I experienced in middle school.
In April 2025, I spent 1 month in the Bakırköy psychiatry service, I was able to get out of there with lies and deception.
Repeated suicide attempts led me more towards art. I listened to more music, read more books, wrote more poetry.
I have two certificates, from the Bilgeİş platform. "Design Thinking" and "Google Slides Effective Presentation Preparation"
