Bowl is transformed into a contemporary art object in the hands of Alev Ebüzziya Siesbye whose works can be seen in many prominent museums around the world. Although, they are mostly characterized with their charming, poetic and surreal quality, Ebüzziya Siesbye’s works in stoneware are considered as unique regarding their technical superiority.
