]]>Balca is an embroidery artist from Istanbul, Turkey, with a background in fashion design. She graduated from the Department of Fashion and Textile Design at Yeditepe University in 2016 and decided to turn her attention to a craft that’s often been dismissed as old-fashioned by many of her peers – the magical world of embroidery.
Like most embroidery artists, Balca kicked things off by stitching together pretty flowers, but a different subject eventually caught her eye. She kicked off a new era of her journey as an embroidery artist when she decided to focus on stitching together human eyes, using her skills with needle and thread to capture the magnetic power of our gaze.
They say that “eyes are windows to the soul,” and Balca’s body of work proves there’s truth to these words. She mastered the art of capturing the diverse beauty of the human gaze, and her embroidery hoops are truly a sight for sore eyes.

Alyssa’s hoops are instantly recognizable, but developing her embroidery style has been quite a journey. She finally found her footing when she started working on her “Retro Girl” series, and things fell into place from that point on.
“I’ve always loved the styles, colors, and music of the 70s & 80s. Leaning into this, I started designing more patterns based on my love of retro! Not only did I love it, but I found that so many others connected with the nostalgia that my designs bring!” she wrote on Instagram.
Alyssa’s embroidery experienced a true boom when she started working on her starry night designs. They bring the magic of the night sky to her embroidery hoops, and she’s using everything from golden threads to beads to make them even more enchanting.

But besides being expertly executed, these pieces also have something that differentiates them from similar flower-inspired embroidery: they contain real flowers.
To make her pieces, Prinku uses a combination of threads and dried flowers. Despite working with such a delicate and unforgiving material, this talented artist is able to create all sorts of unique embroidery artworks in all sorts of shapes and sizes, from wall pieces to lampshades, further adding to their appeal.
“My favorite part of it is the scope to be inventive. Drawing inspiration from traditional embroidery, I love coming up with new ideas and experimenting with the technique further,” Prinku explains on her website.
