Tuncel Funda | Contemporary Artist: Artworks & Biography

  • Tuncel Funda | Contemporary Artist: Artworks & Biography
Tuncel Funda
  • Turkey
  • Painter

For me, painting is like a never-ending adventure. It is full of unknowns.
Funda has made painting her lifestyle. A graduate of the Department of Fine Arts at Gazi University in Ankara, she began her career in the Turkish capital as an art consultant for the Ataturk Cultural Centre. Intensely involved in promoting art, she became a member of different organizations such as " International Association for Plastic Artists ", " Pan-Mediterranean Women Artists Network " or " Association for United Artists." A prizewinner at the World Art Expo 2009 in California, the painter has already presented her work through nearly forty exhibitions in Turkey. Funda’s artistic development is closely linked to the turmoil of her personal life. Her observation of the world, her experiences, her passions, her weaknesses and her dreams are the foundation of her work. She considers art as the product of a struggle and a long-term commitment. Painting, as well as maternity and ecological commitment, are fundamental to her identity.
The presence of the " Bird Woman " is a constant in her work. This creature alone synthesizes all the artist’s inspirations: femininity, childhood, fauna and flora. Her pictorial universe is not based on a representation of reality, but on values. Opposed to any planning, Funda embraces her spontaneity, and her taste for improvisation. Her favourite colours are blue, yellow, red and white, which she combines in shades or in sharp contrasts. Sometimes hot and sometimes cold, her creations always agree with her moods. Her art attempts to introduce new pictorial concepts based on the idealization of objects. This idealization is itself the product of moving objects through the filter of abstraction. Far from conventions, Funda’s style is long lasting. For her, painting is an endless adventure.
