Turkey's soaring sculptress
Nadia Arditti, an Istanbul-born Jewish woman, is one of Turkey’s most prominent sculptors. Her sculptures of soft-curved women, the reflection of forceful emotional journeys, and birds, her symbol of freedom, have become a true hallmark in Turkish sculpture. Her work has been exhibited across the world, including pieces on permanent display in the United States and Britain. Arditti’s life has been shaped by a migration that was politically driven, a serious illness, her rejection of consumerism, the perception of women and faith in solidarity.
