This online workshop consists in creating an individual artwork on paper inspired by the vegetal motifs and patterns found in Turkish traditional art and design. Participants will be looking at geometry & composition using the medium of drawing, and prepare a colour chart according to the colours used in Iznik design.

Iznik, a town in north western Turkey, was the main center for the production of ceramic tiles and tableware in the Ottoman empire. These ceramics were highly valued luxury objects and have come to represent Ottoman visual culture at its height.

Please note this online workshop takes place over three days: 13th, 14th & 17th May.
