Path and Inspiration
I am a Turkish artist, BA and MA Medieval History graduate. Having worked as a lecturer and researcher in Turkey, I studied in Central Saint Martins BA Ceramic Design course in London. My educational background and fascination with the creative power of found objects have shaped my creative journey.Process and Practice
I repurpose found objects into ceramic forms using mould-making and slip-casting. Discarded items like door handles and metal fragments are transformed into hybrid ceramics, preserving their essence while altering their materiality. This process retains their original characteristics while giving them new meanings and functions. Rooted in the historic use of clay for imitation, my work explores transformation and regeneration, revealing the creative potential in overlooked objects.
