Hakan Esmer was born in the Vakfıkebir district of Trabzon in 1973 and graduated from Karadeniz Technical University, Department of Painting-Crafts Education in 1994. He began his art career immediately afterward with Galeri Soyut, establishing an important collaboration by working with Galeri Soyut for approximately 20 years. During this period, he opened numerous solo exhibitions and took part in Turkey's leading art events.

In 1996, Esmer continued his art education as a lecturer in the Department of Painting at Anadolu University Faculty of Fine Arts, where he taught courses such as Basic Art Education, Mural Techniques, and Stained Glass. Throughout his artistic life, he has produced works that establish deep connections between modern figurative painting and abstraction.

Having opened 42 solo exhibitions to date, Esmer has also won numerous awards in prestigious competitions such as the Pharmacists' Association Painting Competition and the Şefik Bursalı Painting Competition. To expand his artistic experiences in Europe, he served as a resident artist in the Szentendre Colony in Hungary in 2016, further deepening his artistic vision through his observations there.

The artist left his academic position in 2012 and continues his work in his studio in İzmir. Developing a strong career both in Turkey and internationally, Esmer is considered one of the young representatives of contemporary Turkish painting on this long-term artistic journey shaped with the contribution of Galeri Soyut.
