Description
Discover the art of traditional Turkish paper marbling (ebru) in this hands-on workshop led by artist Dilara Karaağaç.
Learn how to float pigments on water, create intricate patterns using combs and styluses, and transfer your designs onto paper. With roots in Ottoman book arts, ebru is a meditative and expressive craft that blends colour, movement, and chance. Dilara will guide you through the process step by step, sharing both technique and cultural context.
No experience is needed, and all materials are provided. Ideal for anyone interested in printmaking, book arts, or Turkish visual traditions.
