Zuhal Baysar’s images contain images of different lives that perform independent actions in layers overlapped. The artist aims to bring new meaning to events and situations together in a timely manner. Each visual element of the human inner world, their state of mind, creates new dimensions of existence in transparent layers, including animal figures that remind some layers of human existence.
The sculptures of the artist are also based on simultaneous existence.
Layered simultaneous images in images become group figures with a sense integrity in the sculptures. Some statues have surface-to-surface meaning, color and form trials that support fiction. Events such as the plot, the place, are now subject to the rules of the three-dimensional "real" place and mass and the "real" world.
The artist has so far performed eleven personal exhibitions abroad. The last exhibition titled “Inner nature” was held in Ankara CerModern between 9 April and 20 may 2022. The artist, whose works are mostly exhibited in Ankara and Istanbul, also presented in Vienna, Bucharest, Kisinev, Brussels, Constanta, Sarajevo has participated in projects in many cities, including the Gold Coast and Athens. The works of the artist are included in many corporate and private collections, including the Hacettepe Art Museum.
