The participants, who visit Calculations and Coincidences with a guide, combine the dots, lines and geometric forms in the works with their creativity, reinterpret them with a different eye and transfer them onto biscuit ceramic plates or cups. The transferred drawings are glazed after the application of ceramic decoration techniques.
Note: Participants can pick up their ceramics, which will be sent for firing, from the museum within the time and date intervals to be shared with them.

About Damla Yeşiloğlu
Damla Yeşiloğlu (1977, Istanbul) graduated from Marmara University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Department of Ceramics in 2002. In 2009, she completed her master's degree at Marmara University Institute of Fine Arts with her “Installation in Turkish Ceramics” thesis. In addition to being a ceramics instructor, she created the Damlart Brand in 2009.

Inspired by the exhibition Istanbuls Today, Today's Stories series continues with Hande Ortaç's story "Felis"! This series gathers short stories written by authors encouraged by the photographs in the exhibition.
We, by which I mean some of my classmates and I, knew about Paula Rego. I’ll have to admit, I didn’t know where Rego was from or even where in Europe Portugal was. I thought she was English. Let me tell you how I first heard the very un-English sounding name “Paula Rego”
While Paula Rego belatedly was recognised as one of the leading feminist pioneers of her age, little has been written about her exploration of fluid sexuality. Indeed the current of sado-masochism in her drawings and paintings, has tended to encourage an understanding as a classic clash between the patriarchy and exploited women.
