About

Kübra Su Yıldırım (b. 1997, Istanbul) is an interdisciplinary artist who works through a stream-of-consciousness method. Her practice, oriented toward the unconscious, traces a line from knowledge and existence toward the void and time, approaching the individual’s experience of selfhood together with the tensions and contradictions inherent in human nature. Through a figurative and symbolic mode of expression, she builds detailed, layered compositions; archetypal images, psycho-mythological elements, and female and non-binary figures form the shared language of her work. Rooted in painting, her hybrid practice expands through a range of materials and techniques, including wood, print and animation.

​

Her work has been exhibited at Akbank Sanat, Mamut Art Project, Asprey Gallery (London), Villa Borghese (Rome) and Ninfa Gallery (Milan). She has realised projects with Odunpazarı Modern Museum and MUBI Türkiye, and has collaborated with musicians including Sertab Erener, Nova Norda and Dilhan Şeşen. One of her works has been examined through Plato’s allegory of the cave in an article published in Kültür Araştırmaları Dergisi (2024). She lives and works in Istanbul.
