Focusing on the values that cities carry from the past to the present, the workshop reinterprets Istanbul through the elements that constitute urban culture and identity. In three sessions with different participants, the workshop concludes with the creation of a collective narrative of Istanbul using fabric and tulle. This narrative becomes part of the interactive structure of the PƎRⱯ Reverse, inviting visitors to engage with the artworks and the process-oriented approach. The installation, growing with each workshop, is displayed on the wall of the Pera Learning workshop throughout the exhibition.

Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum (face-to-face).

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.
