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!
