HOMA
Tuğba Koç is an artist and designer whose practice explores transformation through material. Trained in interior architecture and abstract painting in Vienna, she founded HOMA in 2021 at the intersection of art, design, and sculpture. Her work engages deeply with glass, marble, and natural metals such as brass and copper, materials chosen for their physical presence and their capacity to carry memory. Central to her practice are experimental mirroring techniques, where chemical reactions and hand processes generate unexpected patinas, textures, and reflective surfaces. For Tuğba, material is both medium and subject: a living entity shaped by time, manipulation, and transformation. Each piece reflects a careful balance between control and chance, structure and intuition.
HOMA conceives each work as more than an object, but as part of an environment. Light and reflection become architectural elements, shaping atmospheres that blur the boundaries between art, architecture, and design. Materials are fused, mirrored, and reassembled into layered compositions that explore transparency and opacity, fragility and strength, depth and surface. Collections such as Nebula, Eye of the Universe, Ash, Orbis, and Drop of Silver on Copper exemplify this material alchemy, where weight becomes fluid and reflection takes on a sculptural presence. Working closely with a women-based team and master artisans, Tuğba Koç develops singular collectible works that honor craftsmanship while pushing it into contemporary forms, pieces that resonate as functional objects with a strong sculptural identity, carrying memory while remaining firmly anchored in the present.
