About
I am Hande Alpaslan, a cultural heritage practitioner, curator, and watercolor illustrator based in Istanbul. With a background in Marine Biology and more than ten years across museums, cultural institutions, publishing, and creative projects, I focus on visitor experience, public engagement, and interpretation—always aiming to create inclusive, welcoming, and meaningful experiences for diverse audiences.
I coordinate living memory and heritage-focused programmes, combining curatorial research with archival and oral history work. Alongside my institutional roles, I work as a freelance watercolor illustrator producing commissioned scientific and educational illustrations for international clients, as well as custom artwork and creative consulting through independent practice.
