Department of Fine Arts ’05 graduate Assoc. Prof. Seval Şener opened a solo exhibition, “Sleeping Venus,” at the Siyah Beyaz Art Gallery on December 6.
The artist, who focuses on nudes in relation to original sin and expulsion from paradise, presents works that are centered on art history and mythology. Offering an alternative approach through the artist’s formal language and stylistic transformations, the exhibition focuses on the mythological figure of Venus as well as on Adam and Eve.
Dr. Şener is currently a faculty member in the Department of Sculpture at Hacettepe University. She holds a master’s degree in Graphic Design from Bilkent University, completed in 2007, as well as a Competence in Art from Hacettepe University in 2012.
“Sleeping Venus,” will be at the Siyah Beyaz Art Gallery until January 4, 11 a.m. – 7 p.m. every day except Sundays.
