Begüm Topal is a 20-year-old fourth-year Graphic Design student at Yeditepe University in Istanbul, Türkiye. Her interest in collage began in the 12th grade, while preparing for the Fine Arts entrance exams, when she received collage training from her teacher, Burak Dak. This experience introduced her to the expressive possibilities of combining images, textures, and materials to create new visual narratives.

Alongside her studies, she creates and sells collage artworks through her Instagram account, @begsartt, where she shares her creative practice and develops her own visual language. With a background in graphic design, she is interested in the relationship between imagery, composition, typography, and visual communication. Through experimentation and the juxtaposition of different elements, she aims to create distinctive compositions that encourage viewers to discover new meanings in familiar images.
