SEDA was born in 1976 in Istanbul.
As a teenage she had a strong interest in ethnic jewellery, ancient beads, history, mythology and archaeology.
She graduated from the Faculty of Business Administration at Bilkent University in 2000.
During her university years, she took ceramic courses offered within the university, which introduced her at an early age to materials and production processes.
While working in the fields of marketing and sales, this curiosity deepened and led her to build an archeological collection focused on ethnic glass beads , jewellery , talismans and many other small pieces with archaeological references.
Over time, this interest evolved beyond collecting. She also contributed to documentation studies by registering some objects from her collection in museum records.
Through workshops and training in jewellery design, she began creating her own pieces.
Today, she continues her work by combining ceramics, jewellery making and glass techniques , wearable sculptural pieces under the SEDNA brand, which she developed together with her sister SENA, and is currently working on a collection that reflects this interdisciplinary approach.
Sedna is also a reflection of sisterhood, love, and life — of what we carry, protect, and choose to keep close.
SENA was born in 1982 in Istanbul.
From a very young age, SENA has been drawing, imagining, and creating. Her inner world has always been expansive, intuitive, and untamed — a space where forms, symbols, and stories emerge naturally. This wide and vivid imagination continues to guide her practice today.
She graduated from Central Saint Martins, University of the Arts London, in 2006. Since then, she has held seven solo exhibitions and participated in numerous group shows, international projects, and art fairs. Yet her work remains deeply personal — an ongoing journey shaped by experience, intuition, and transformation.
At the core of her practice lies a strong belief in the intelligence of the heart — a way of knowing beyond logic. Her work is deeply connected to nature and informed by an interest in mysticism, magic, unseen dimensions, and the act of creation itself.
SENA sees herself as a sculptor in a constant state of learning — open, listening, and evolving.
With SEDNA, she creates wearable sculptural pieces — intimate objects that exist close to the body. Each piece carries a sense of energy, memory, and intention, like a personal talisman.Each piece is one of a kind, shaped slowly by hand, and holds within it a sense of presence.A piece that invite the wearer to carry something meaningful
She is currently preparing for her 8th solo exhibition at Art Sümer, İstanbul.
