Amasya → Istanbul — oil on canvas

Paintings charted
between myth
and the stars.

Naci Caba fuses a lifelong fascination with astronomy and painterly abstraction — from distant galaxies to Middle-earth to his native Istanbul, worked entirely in oil.

The four collections

Four skies, one brush.

Each collection is its own constellation — science fiction, fantasy, deep space and the city Naci calls home.

About the artist

"My paintings sit where astronomy and abstraction meet — the same curiosity, worked in oil instead of a telescope."

Born in Amasya, Turkey, Naci Caba's artistic path began with drawings for storybooks and coloring books. That early instinct for narrative grew into a full practice in oil painting, where his lifelong interest in astronomy now runs through nearly everything he makes.

Across eight exhibitions — three of them at Istanbul's Bakırköy Cultural Center — his work has moved between science fiction, fantasy and the fantastic, always returning to space, scale and story.

From collectors

Some reviews of the work.

"

I have been in love with this painting for such a long time — I completely geeked out when I opened it. So incredible in person, and packaged well and shipped fast.

It looks even better in person. The seller kept me informed about the shipment the whole way. Really happy with it and would recommend.

Great original painting — replies came within the hour every time I asked a question. Delivery to the UK was faultless, twice over.
