Luminous colors, painterly brushstrokes, and an intimate gaze characterize the subtle elegance of Nihal Kececi's figurative and landscape paintings. Bridging the gap between abstraction and representation, Kececi incorporates richly textured surfaces with ambiguous areas of complex hues. Kececi's romantic visions and intense color palette draw on her cultural background, while her discerning eye and innovative approach point directly to her scientific research and interests. Despite the representational aspect of her paintings, Kececi intends for her works to depict not the scenes from everyday life, but the universal emotions, ideas, and concepts that drive her to create as an artist. Just as the artist's work has been shaped by her personal experiences, her life has been shaped by her deep relationship with painting. By intertwining the uniquely individual with the distinctly universal, Kececi produces works that speak to a wide audience, appealing not only for their aesthetic beauty, but for their transcendental themes.
Born in Turkey, Nihal Kececi now lives and works in Maryland.
