Konya’s Artistic Marbling Heritage

Marbling in Konya, also known as "Ebru," is a traditional Turkish art form with a rich history. Konya, with its historical depth and cultural heritage, has been a significant center for this art form.


This technique involves floating pigments on water and then transferring them onto paper to create unique and vibrant patterns. 


Ebru artists in Konya often use traditional methods passed down through generations, blending intricate designs with the region's cultural motifs. The art form is celebrated for its fluidity and the way it reflects the natural beauty and spirit of the region.


In recent years, Konya has hosted various workshops and exhibitions dedicated to Ebru, showcasing both contemporary and traditional interpretations of this beautiful art form.
