OzzyDemir

Ozzy Demir was born in Istanbul and lives and works in Houston, Texas. He paints figures, objects, and the space between them, work rooted in lived experience, faith, and the tension between cultures.

Largely self-taught, Demir trained alongside artists including Ken Auster, developing a practice built on observation rather than institution. He works in acrylic and oil, drawn to subjects that carry more weight than they appear to: hands in prayer, bodies in struggle, ordinary objects loaded with memory and meaning.
