Ebru Akcatepe (Istanbul)  After graduating from high school, Ebru went to Vienna for University education and successfully graduated from the Advertising and Marketing Department of the University of Economics and the Vienna Film Academy.

While Ebru was continuing her university education, she realized the gap experienced by the Turks in Austria in the field of culture, art and literature, so she started working by establishing the first Turkish theater in Vienna. Ebru later founded the International Vienna Cultural Center. She served both the Turkish community and the Viennese community in the field of culture and art with artists of different and ethnic origins. By inviting collective and individual music, dance and theater groups from all over the world, she organized symposiums, exhibitions, film and book promotions, and various workshops and tried to equip children and adults in artistic and cultural fields. Ebru also worked in the production field as a manager for many years at Adi Mayer, one of Europe's well-known film companies.

After her university years, Ebru began to develop her passion for painting professionally in the workshop of her husband, the painter and sculptor Şinasi Bozatlı. Thinking with the philosophy that every branch of art is our most valuable friend, Ebru transfers what she observes to the canvas in order to make everything she experiences, feels and thinks more visible through her painting. According to Ebru, art sometimes entertains us, sometimes makes us think, sometimes makes us sad, while leading us to question what we experience... and all these emotions, which form the basis of being human, create the magic, enlightenment and awareness of our lives.
