Sabiha Nil Kurtulan serves as a Lecturer in the English Preparatory Division at Bogazici University, where she has accumulated 24 years of teaching experience while actively contributing to academic research in art-based methodologies.
Her academic credentials include:
- MA in Translation and Interpreting from Boğaziçi University (1999)
- BA in Western Languages and Literature from Boğaziçi University (1996)
Her research program investigates the convergence of artistic practice and scholarly inquiry, specializing in A/R/Tography and Poetic Inquiry as frameworks for exploring how poetry functions as both research data and introspective instrument. She examines anthropological dimensions within ethnic poetry and develops pedagogical applications where creative expression informs educational identity formation, positioning artistic processes as legitimate research tools within academic contexts.
Analysis of her 2021 publications reveals a cohesive interdisciplinary trajectory examining how sensory mediums—photography, music, and visual art—generate poetic narratives through arts-based research. Her work consistently bridges aesthetic creation with educational theory, demonstrating how artistic translation processes (e.g., transforming paintings into poems) cultivate new methodological pathways for understanding human experience within learning environments.
