We are inspired in this workshop by the 17th Istanbul Biennial project of Sriwhana Spong, in which she produces the work based on the dreams of two women, Ümmü Abdullah and Rabia, who are early followers of Islamic mysticism. By making use of colorful feathers, strings, beads, and other materials, we design our dreamcatchers on carton plates as we chat about how dreams are the creative reflections of our mind, while at the same time we improve our motor skills and expand our imagination.

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
