İlayda is a young sinology researcher studying Chinese Language and Literature. Her work focuses on Chinese literature, female representation in historical texts, and cross-cultural perceptions. By combining its academic interest with an empathy-based perspective, it aims to make visible the common feelings, needs and quest for justice of different cultures. He believes that narrative can be established not only through text but also through aesthetics and design.

I actually do the same things, searching for cultures in texts, identities in design, and stories in women's experiences, while combining sewing, fabrics, language, and worlds. Making the invisible visible and showing that people are much more similar than they think.

While showing how similar strangers actually are, I want to explain that although women's experiences vary from culture to culture, the need to be seen and heard for equality is universal.
