| Biography | Ceren views design as an exploration of material memory and the emotional resonance of form. Based in Istanbul, the ceramic artist and designer works with glass, clay, and wood, treating them as living narratives shaped by craftsmanship and time. Through her brand Maiizen, she reinterprets traditional glass-blowing to create sculptural lighting installations. In her independent practice, she works with stoneware and porcelain to investigate the raw boundaries of form and the tactile honesty of the medium. Her work is an invitation to observe the subtle rhythms of nature and the quiet interaction between light, surface, and human touch. |
