EMİNE NURSEL TURAN
3DEmine Nursel Turan started her design adventure as a Ship Construction Engineer at Istanbul Technical University in 1978. However, over time, the focus shifted to the design of precious jewelry and objects. After receiving jewelry design and jewelry education at a prestigious institution such as GIA (Gemological Institute of America), she gained experience by working at the leading jewelry companies in Turkey. at the beginning of the 2000s, the idea of aCCenturC design gallery, which offers young Turkish designers and artists the opportunity to introduce themselves and exhibit, came to life. Operating primarily in the Çukurcuma district of Istanbul and later in Nişantaşı, this gallery has undertaken the mission of helping new talents to strengthen their presence in the art world.
Emine has been continuing her creative processes in recent years by taking inspiration from the natural environment in which she lives. He produces natural wooden boards and tabletop objects by reviving the smell and memories of his father's carpenter's workshop, which he remembers from childhood.
While exploring the different dimensions of design and art, he continues to meet art lovers with periodic solo exhibitions, events and invitations. Emine's works offer different experiences to those who are interested by reflecting the subtlety of the craft with the thoroughness and care of a jeweler, as well as the creative sense of art.
Art is a magic that speaks in the language of materials. Meeting with new materials every day, ranging from steel to gold, glass to diamond, paper to wood, is the most powerful expression of creativity for me. Each different material opens the door to the world of thought shaped by my imagination and becomes a tool in the process of Deconstructing my imagination by igniting a spark in it.
The unique potentials carried by different materials are a unique source of inspiration for creating new works in my world.
In my opinion, the greatest companion of an artist is the journey of self-discovery. Overcoming emotional barriers in the search for identity releases the flow of creativity. This experience, filled with endless possibilities, turns every work into a personal narrative. The different languages and forms presented by the materials bring to life the stories, feelings and thoughts we want to tell.
While I, Emine, am a constantly renewing, changing and transforming being, I feed on the passion of creation. And this is where art turns into being not only an aesthetic experience, but also a journey of discovery.
Every new work is a platform where we redefine ourselves, express our feelings and thoughts. This journey we have made to our own inner world also offers those interested the opportunity to establish a deep connection with you.
While the artist finds himself in the dance of materials, he invites the audience to this magical world.
