about me

Elegia Sezer

Kyrgyz by origin, twenty years in Istanbul, always moving around the world. Painting 16th century Iznik tile patterns by hand, traveling slowly, writing about what it feels like to find joy in nature and art.

Art Workshops

I paint traditional Turkish Iznik patterns and tiles by hand, a craft rooted in 16th century Ottoman tile art. My workshops bring that tradition into small, slow afternoons in Istanbul, where guests paint their own piece to take home. A quiet, hands-on way to spend part of a day in the city.

Work with me

Hotel Collaborations

I design and host small pattern-painting workshops for boutique hotels and slow-travel venues, places that already care about craft and heritage. If that's your rhythm, I'd like to hear from you.
