EBRU SANATI (TURKISH MARBLING ART)
Cansu Pylkkänen’s “Ebb and Flow” is a captivating exploration of life’s rhythms through the ancient Turkish art of Ebru. This project features a collection of fine art prints that showcase the fluid dynamics and intricate patterns of marbling, offering viewers a visual meditation on tradition, emotion, and the beauty of life.
With pieces such as Journey, Strength, and Gratitude, the collection reflects themes of personal growth and the natural ebb and flow of human experiences. By reconnecting with her cultural roots, Pylkkänen bridges the timeless elegance of Ebru with contemporary art, inviting audiences to immerse themselves in its rich patterns and profound emotional resonance.
“Through the art of Ebru, I’ve rediscovered the beauty of surrender—letting go and allowing the patterns of life to emerge organically. This collection is my way of sharing that journey,” says Pylkkänen.
Through Ebb and Flow, Pylkkänen celebrates both the artistry of marbling and its ability to capture the fluid beauty of life itself, making it a meaningful addition for those who appreciate fine art and cultural heritage.
