My Marbling Story

My own path began not with water, but with stone, earth, and history. As a chemical engineer working in restoration and conservation, I spent years studying materials of historic buildings. In the lab, I discovered that even stones carry thousands of years of memory. That perspective brought me closer to colors, textures, and eventually, to marbling.

When I first encountered marbling, what I saw was tradition: the patience of masters, the simplicity of the patterns, and the quiet calm of water. But over time, I realized this art doesn’t belong only to the past, it speaks to the present and the future as well. That’s when I began to find my own voice.

In my marbling journey, classical tulip motifs coexist with modern graphics, pop-art posters, digital experiments, and even street exhibitions. Because for me, marbling is not just “sprinkling paint on water”,  it is the meeting point of science and art, of tradition and modernity, of the personal and the universal.

With every new piece, I leave behind a part of myself, while also creating space for viewers to find their own stories.
