Ceren is an artist, product designer and educator from Istanbul. She received her BFA in Visuals Arts from Sabanci University and her MFA in Dynamic Media from Massachusetts College of Art. Her works have been in display in galleries and events across the Europe and in the United States. She has also had the privilege to speak at conferences including SXSW Festival both in 2014 and 2015 where she shared her research on design, surveillance and forced identity augmentation. Her graduate thesis has been featured at Wired Magazine in Germany and Arte.tv in France.

Her work explores how dynamic media technologies can expose dataveillance and act as a shield of privacy to overcome such vulnerabilities. Her speculative company Sous, Inc. creates an alternative lifestyle in the modern world of digitized information through fashion and interior design. 

During the day she builds digital products and teaches Product design. On the weekends she spends her time hiking the Maine coast with her 2 Siberian huskies, reading a good book at a pub, or enlightening you — tirelessly — on a low-waste & low impact lifestyle. She loves the Impressionism, good eats, good wine & beer.

Ceren divides her time between NYC and Portland, ME.
