1. A display apparatus comprising:
a substrate;
an inorganic layer disposed on the substrate and including a first area, a second area, and an elongated recess, wherein:
the first area and the second area of the inorganic layer are respectively surrounded by the elongated recess and are isolated from each other by the elongated recess in a plan view,
a part of the elongated recess is disposed between a first area and a second area, and
the first area and the second area are adjacent to each other in a first direction;
an organic material disposed in the elongated recess;
an organic insulating layer on the organic material and the inorganic layer, wherein an upper surface of the organic insulating layer includes a first inclined portion and a second inclined portion which are inclined with respect to an upper surface of the substrate;
a plurality of first pixel electrodes directly contacting the first inclined portion of the upper surface of the organic insulating layer and overlapping the first area of the inorganic layer; and
a plurality of second pixel electrodes directly contacting the second inclined portion of the upper surface of the organic insulating layer and overlapping the second area of the inorganic layer,
wherein the number of the plurality of first pixel electrodes corresponding to the first area and the number of the plurality of second pixel electrodes corresponding to the second area are different from each other.
