Two of the important materials in the history
of humanity have been the kilim rug and earthen pot. They have
developed separately and have had separate functions. They have
delighted the lives of many people with their beautiful colors
and original designs.
Ayse Nur Arun paints kilim motifs on earthen pots combining
the two forms. She has modernized them while maintaining their
traditionally, and with a contemporary application, she has
brought up a new structure. At first she studied all the traditional
kilim designs; she even came up with designs from mythology.
Later she created new compositions with a through selection
from these designs. After all of this preparatory work, it was
finally time to combine the two.
Capturing the envisioned design, color and
structure required many trials; she worked over and over again
with patience. She managed to apply the designs to the pots
by using a special painting technique. The aim was to be able
to deliver this new enthusiasm, this new joy of life to other
people with the colors and language of the kilim rug.
Ayse Nur, born in Turkey in 1958, began to
paint earthen pots in 1986 after the loss of loved one. In the
beginning nobody noticed her art, but she kept on working. Gradually
her pots began spreading around the world with the help of admirers
from the United States, Japan, Belgium and Turkey.

Ayse Nur says "I tried to bring two different
forms together and tried to create new compositions in my designs.
I always searched for the appropriate design, color and form.
I kept on experimenting. What I am happy about at the end of
my search is the warmth that came out."
