‘TOUCH OF REALITY ON SURFACES’
Walls are freshening up via surface designs. Asst. Prof. Dr. Ebru Corsini, Lecturer at Izmir University of Economics, Faculty of Fine Arts and Design, Department of Fashion and Textile Design, is creating 3D designs on walls and making the surfaces turn into sky, marble, or flower gardens. Corsini is adding reality perception on surfaces via art of painting, and mesmerizing the viewers in Milan, Parma, Como, Monza, Switzerland Saint Moritz, and Turkey with her work of art.
Corsini states that she likes to recreate surfaces that need to be revised and renewed. She says, “My favorite surface to paint is sky. Sky changes the perception of height of a space. It draws attention and makes it more valuable, it provides roominess for people. I also create designs that look like marble, apply gold leaf, and create and apply 3D surface designs. People who see my designs for the first time lose their perception of reality. They are stuck between reality and illusion.”
‘Technique Meets With Design’
Corsini states that she uses dust pigments, water based paints and special preservatives in her deigns, and uses techniques such as aging, antique effects, and marbleizing after a thorough research, observation, and design processes.
‘Turkish Motives Decorate the Walls’
Corsini reports she changes perception with her work on walls, ceilings, columns, and pillars, and she prefers to get involved in work regarding Turkish culture in foreign countries. Corsini states the following:
“I engraved a tulip, a symbol of Turkey, on a restaurant wall in Parma, Italy. I believe that engraving such a Turkish motive there was so meaningful in terms of giving a peace message. I would like to continue to create different perceptions on surfaces in my upcoming work.”
