Everyone in this universe is in search of meaning. For those who want to see it, every work tells about its artist, and this universe is a rare work of the artist. The art of illumination, which is the calmest state of this search, fascinated me. I believe it is a great blessing to meet this art. You feel that you have traveled to a different time and place with the art of illumination, in which every brush stroke turns into a dhikr. While searching for beauty, it is not possible not to mention the art of calligraphy, in this sense, the art of calligraphy has a special place for me. I would like to end my words with a quote from Muhibbi's Divan that I love: "There is no turning back, I have turned to peace of mind / May the prayer be good for me".
