who am I

My name is Sera Eryorulmaz, and I’m an artist and costume maker from Türkiye. My art is mainly grotesque, with extreme detail and realistic colors. I also use bright, strong colors to highlight things that aren’t physical, like emotions, the soul, and what it means to be human.

When I started developing my style, my goal was to challenge people’s idea of beauty. That’s why I make such detailed art. Even when my subjects are scary or unsettling, the details and colors draw people in, forcing them to look closer. This helps them notice things they might normally ignore. I use these details to guide the viewer’s eye and help them rethink their perspectives and break taboos.

For me, art doesn’t need to be traditionally beautiful to be meaningful. It just needs to make people feel something. This made me realize that beauty is a fluid concept—it’s not fixed.

I’ve always known I would be an artist, even as a child. By the time I was six, making art felt as natural as breathing. I can’t imagine life without it. Every morning, I wake up thinking about my next project or admiring the incredible artworks others have created over time. Art is part of who I am—it feeds my soul.

The themes of my work often explore the struggles of being human and existing in this chaotic universe. While life isn’t only about suffering, I believe pain and joy are deeply connected. Happiness is more meaningful when it comes after heartbreak. There’s a harmony between pain and peace, and that balance fascinates me.

Through my art, I want people to feel things they’ve never felt before—or confront emotions they’ve avoided. I hope my work inspires you to see yourself and the world from a new perspective.
