In the workshop led by ceramic artist Lütfullah Genç, the participants receive theoretical information about tile motifs and then transfer tile motifs onto biscuit ceramic tiles following the guided tour of the exhibition Souvenirs of the Future. The drawings transferred from paper to tile are glazed after the application of ceramic decoration techniques. The participants’ drawings form a collective composition in which the individual parts comprise the whole.
Note: Participants can pick up their fired ceramics from the museum one week after the workshop.

About Lütfullah Genç
Lütfullah Genç (1994, Giresun) graduated from Hacettepe University Faculty of Fine Arts, Department of Ceramics in 2018. In 2021, he completed his master's degree at Hacettepe University with his thesis titled “Transformation of Images from Personal Memory into Art Objects.” Focusing on the notions of class, object and memory in his works, the artist approaches the illusions created by psychology in perception through the concept of object. Utilizing the tension of perception by using narrow and wide contrasts, the artist produces new media and installation-based works in which he works with different mediums, especially ceramics.
He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
It was a quiet night in the dessert. Even the mice weren’t around. A few LEDs blinked in the dark, and the sound of a fan filled the infinite void. The conversation cutting the silence seemed to go nowhere.
He didn’t expect this from me. And I hadn’t expected that we would decide to get married that day, at that moment. Everything happened all of a sudden, but exactly like it was supposed to happen in our day. We thought of the idea of marriage simultaneously, we smiled simultaneously, blinking and opening our eyes in unison.
