| Vesile Yilmaz does something I never imagined: she paints on water. That's just the start of the magic that Vesile brought us last summer at Tradition Bearers, Live! when she shared the stories behind her practice of Ebru, the Turkish art of water marbling, with our live audience in Madison.
Now, even if you missed the event, you can hear her stories and learn about the art that Vesile says brings people together and speaks to the heart. From her three teachers in Istanbul, she learned Ebru technique, the philosophy of water, and the value of Ebru in Turkish culture, all of which we can learn from her in Wisconsin today.
I know you'll enjoy the latest episode of Human Powered podcast with Vesile. It's the second in a series of three episodes with the traditional artists who WH's Community Powered director Chrissy Widmayer worked with thanks to our partnership with the Folk and Traditional Arts Apprenticeship program at the Wisconsin Arts Board.
