Ariana Museum Pottery Market

Ariana Museum is a real gem in Geneva and it is one of the biggest museum of Ceramics and Glasswork in Europe. It has a special place in my heart, I love to visit every new exhibition, use every occasion to go and admire the old and new works of art.  Its wonderful garden hosts us -the ceramics studios of Geneva- this year in a pottery market as part of Journees Europeennes de Patrimoine.  

Here we are, my latest project DARE stand before the unique facade of the Museum.

DARE is in the Ariana Museum's Garden

Finding Their New Homes

I am so happy to see my pieces find their new homes. It is incredibly rewarding for me to see them blending in their new environments and in conversation with others.

A Timid Invitation...

Will you dare to enter?

Dialogue

Grogged stoneware, hand built, glazed, high fired to 1240ºC

For the last two years, with this new work in mind, I have been thinking hard about some words. Dialogue is one of them. An important one. A possibility of a dialogue, suggesting an interaction, a shy invitation for a conversation...  

Tribute to my Alma Mater

Well, I was trained as a civil engineer in probably one of the best technical universities, Orta Dogu Teknik Universitesi (Middle East Technical University) which happened to be in a wonderful campus designed in a brutalist architectural style in the 50s in Ankara. 

So I may say, being in love with concrete is in my veins. These pieces you see here are actually clay not concrete but I love them all the more because of their exposed concrete appearance and feeling. They are so simple in their unpretentious honesty yet powerful!

New work is coming along!
