Born in Istanbul in 1905,\u00a0 she was the father President of the Ottoman Court of Appeals, and was born to incredible privilege, attending a private high school and learning to speak French and English.

By this point, she was being published in magizines for her portraits, and they are truly worth the attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She would later show at The Galatasaray Exhibition, an important show for upcoming artists of the time. She would move to Bursa where she took a job teaching a girls school, and would grow disillusioned with the culture there, especially after members of the community outright said to her face they didn\u2019t like her work. She would move back to Paris where she would later die of cancer in 1938. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"200\" height=\"268\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/pavansangha\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13283\/2021\/12\/Hale_Asaf_Otoportre.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-106\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"682\" height=\"940\" src=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/pavansangha\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13283\/2021\/12\/Screen-Shot-2021-12-12-at-7.27.19-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-107\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/pavansangha\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13283\/2021\/12\/Screen-Shot-2021-12-12-at-7.27.19-PM.png 682w, https:\/\/eportfolios.capilanou.ca\/pavansangha\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13283\/2021\/12\/Screen-Shot-2021-12-12-at-7.27.19-PM-218x300.png 218w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 682px) 100vw, 682px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Her cubist portraits stand out as it strikes a great balance between the more abstract cubist feel and the real feel of classical still life.
