Sinem Banna (/bɑːnə/; born 1968) is a Turkish-American artist currently living and working in both San Francisco, California,[1] and her home town of Istanbul, Turkey[2] and exhibits internationally.[3][4][5]

Banna works in several disciplines, mainly sculpture and assemblage/collage, site specific installations, and murals.[1][6][7] Her work often consists of three-dimensional compositions.[8][9] A number of her works incorporate objects such as toy parts, tea glasses, and coffee beans so as to capture cultural signs and symbols in her work.[3][10] She works frequently with Plexiglas constructions as well as light boxes.[3]
