Zeynep Beler is an Istanbul-based interdisciplinary artist.

Recent exhibitions include “Tree, Simulacrum, Sea, Moon” (Borusan Contemporary, 2017), “Beachcomber” (solo) (Krank Art Gallery, 2018), “Invisible Threads” (solo) (Karantina Mekan, 2019) and “We are in this together, we are not one and the same” (Lyon, 2019).
