Karadibek began her formal training in academic painting in 1999 under professors from Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University and was invited to remain as an instructor after three years of intensive study. For over twenty-six years, she has balanced her parallel paths as artist and educator in Istanbul.

Grounded in rigorous academic tradition, her work merges classical discipline with contemporary experimentation in texture and materiality. This marks her first exhibition in the United States; however, several DHV Artworks collectors have already commissioned her work.
