She had undertaken Stage Design Education in Salzburg Summer Academy in 1993. Along with her professional role in the State Opera and Ballet, she has continued to perform my art personally, holding exhibitions in Turkey and Abroad. HER ART The compositions designed through the inspiration of a variety of press techniques in the department she had studied, as well as effects of the Anatolian Civilization's traditions and miniature art's traces are seen her paintings as stories, tales and symbols. Her late works are a result of her interest in the art of 'Camalti' ('UnderGlass') which has been getting forgotten with time. With the desire of endearing the art of 'Camalti' to future generations; tales of our childhood, traditions and ceremonies of Anatolian Culture are showing up in Sevindik Yalcin's new exhibition as a reflection of her prior works.
