Sebiha Demir
Sebiha Demir is a Netherlands-based artist born in Lochem in 1978. She is best known for her animal sculptures made from a rather unconventional material: 22 bullet sleeves used in police training. Her works center around raising awareness of the increasing man-driven threat exotic animals face. The plush toy-like, adorable depiction of the animals is harshly juxtaposed with bullet shells, strengthening the artist’s message. Represented by Rademakers Gallery in Amsterdam, Demir has participated in a number of art fairs worldwide.
