One Artist, One Workshop: Fantastic Figures

Led by museum educators, the workshop focuses on Selma Gürbüz’s artistic career and the concept of “self-portrait”. The children begin the program with a brief presentation introducing the artist and her productions. They examine the artist’s works “Self-Portrait”, “Faded Costume”, and “Hand Globe” featured in Istanbul Modern’s collection exhibition and follow her example. They design figures inspired by nature and alter forms based on the silhouettes of different plants and animals. Having explored Selma Gürbüz’s artistic point of view, the children take their artworks with them when leaving the workshop.
