Eti Koen is an artist creating art using her 'fabric fusion' technique to portray the stories she wants to tell.

Her journey started in 1990 when she attended Linda Robinson’s classical patchwork classes at the Turkish-American University Association. In time, with her passion for Ottoman and Turkish motifs, she decided to seek ways of incorporating them into her artwork using fabric. Thus she developed her technique 'Fabric Fusion'.

She chose Ottoman Miniature Art as her starting point, but then started creating original themes of her own. Traditional motifs, Istanbul views, and Sephardic immigration are the samples of these works. She has opened many personal exhibitions as well as taking part in joint exhibitions.
