Full biography▼

Recep Demirli, born on August 3, 2005 in Istanbul, discovered his bond with art at an early age. Interested in different disciplines during primary and secondary school, he deepened his talent in the plastic arts through ceramics and painting while attending art courses in high school.

He laid the foundations of his training at ESEV (Esenler Art and Education Center), where he was not only a student but also played an active role in exhibition planning and production teams. While contributing to the curatorial processes of dozens of exhibitions, he also had opportunities to share his own work with audiences. After graduating high school, an intensive one-year Fine Arts Faculty preparation programme at ESEV strengthened his technical skills.

In 2024 he began his academic path in the Ceramics Department of the Faculty of Fine Arts at Necmettin Erbakan University in Konya. He continues his undergraduate degree; even in his first year his work has appeared in various exhibitions, and he continues to develop his practice in ceramic art.
