Dear Sir /Madam , I am illustrative illusion "mixed media" Artist. I would like to aplication for open to12th Personal exhibition at your gallery. İf you will be send your informations I will happy. Regards, Tümay Güneş Tartar www.tumaygunes.com "My Wing Marks " 12th Personal Exhibit Dubai Having spent her hours in the infinite depths of the Internet for the past 6 years, Tumay Gunes Tartar enriches the visuals of all her glassceramic wall panel works with illustrative illusion effects, which she has designed, produced, and applied to living spaces for 20 years. She turns these designs that she has brought into existence on digital platforms into "Digital Surfaces," with her own words, by transferring them to "mixed media" textures in which she uses various materials. When the production process is analyzed, the effects of all her works she has produced thus far can be clearly seen. It can also be seen that the artist has used tactile and percievable threedimensional materials, breaking the inaccessability of digitalism in her recent productions. With the sharp transformation of this "Transferring My Ceramics in Living Spaces to Digital Surfaces," she questions the concepts of civil liberties in the surfaces she has designed, creating figures that touch upon the social scars reflected in some of her works. The symmetry that all living creatures in the universe sustain revelas conscious meanings, transferring the recurring motions to all figures and forms. Biography: Tumay Gunes TARTAR graduated from Eskisehir Anadolu University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Ceramic Division in 1995. She has been working in her atelier with glass melting relief ceramic technique for 15 years. Her works are installed on indoor and outdoor walls, either fixed or moveable.

For the purpose of originality she also adds selfmelting, colored glass granules into the clay. She is producing wall and floor ceramic tiles for various buildings. Besides, she makes relief ceramic panels for the walls of hotels, shopping malls, villas and offices. She organized 11 personal exhibitions. She enriched her artistic commitment by studying "Pate de Verre" technique, introduced to the world by the French in 19th century. Tumay Gunes entered the world of textile 3 years ago. She uses designs and patterns of her ceramic works now in textile products and she calls her efforts as "transferring my ceramics on living places to living bodies".

"My Designs Bring Luck to Wearers" Tumay Gunes, who started designing career by ceramic works, organized ten exhibitions. She uses fire clay and for uniqueness she adds colorful glass granules which melt with the heat. Her designs are totally spontaneous. She says, "I listen to my inner voice and work on the wet clay as it directs and inspires me." She also says, "When the designing finishes and I take one step back from the work, I see that it has an Art Nouveau style. There is a personal, intimate touch in my art. Those who are familiar to my work, when they come across a work of mine, can easily say 'This is a product of Tumay Gunes'. I've been working for sixteen years on wall tiles and patterns. I thought it was the time to set sail to new horizons and transferred my patterns from wall tiles to clothes. I do Haute Coutre. I've got more than two thousand tile designs, all registered. In my tshirt designs I use them to create endless possibilities. I love most to work with artists. Because they know the exact meaning of artistic creation and freedom and let me work freely. This gives me much more satisfaction from the work I do. Not only artists, but also everyone who is meticulous on what he or she wears request special works from me. I also believe that my clothes bring luck to their wearer. My next goal is to reach to a wider audience with my own brand."
