Presentation

Dervis Akdemir, born in 1997, is a British sculptor specializing in pop art and minimalistic designs. He graduated from King's College London and he earned The Architectural Imagination certificate from Harvard University. Akdemir gained recognition when one of his artworks was featured in a recent season of Love Island, subsequently showcased in Hello Magazine. In a remarkably brief period, his sculptures garnered acclaim, earning distinctions such as Best of May on Artfinder, Beulah's Portrait Picks, and recognition in Minimalist Interior design picks by editors.

Akdemir draws inspiration from Greek Mythology and historical events that have shaped contemporary society. Each of his designs skillfully combine contrasting elements, challenging the concept of impossibility. Working with natural materials like clay and plaster, he employs ancient methods to craft each sculpture. Influenced by notable artists such as Banksy and Andy Warhol, Akdemir infuses modern elements into simple sculptures. His works have graced exhibitions at the Parallax Art Fair and the British Library, notably during the Alexander the Great exhibition, showcasing his commitment to both historical and contemporary artistic influences.
