Read MoreI was born in Ankara/Turkey in 1975. I have Bachelor of Science degree from Hacettepe University. I am a Food Engineer but I would prefer to describe myself as an artist rather than an engineer. I have been performing traditional Islamic calligraphy(Thuluth) and illumination arts since 2000. My teachers were academics of prominent art faculties in İstanbul and Konya. I have participated in many joint exhibitions in both these cities. I also engaged in a book project with my colleagues, which was involving 40 hadiths of Prophet Mohammad. I have an exhibition award in a Turkish Decorative Arts Competition which was held by Turkish Cultural Ministry in 2009. Additionally, I presented an article visually about a famous hilye of a master calligrapher Kazasker Mustafa İzzet Efendi at an international conference in Canada in 2017. Currently, I have been performing my arts independently at home and I also continue to resarch and readings on traditional arts as well.
