To me, my culture means a lot of different things. I wasn’t sure at first how to interpret the prompt, but I decided to capture Turkish glass art, which captures both my Turkish identity, something I’m very proud of and want to learn more about, as well as art, something that is a big part of my life and my family’s lives. This dining set includes a lot of symbols and colors that are really important in Turkish culture, such as pomegranates and deep blues. It’s in a glass display case right in front of our kitchen, and I always love passing by and admiring the work inside, specifically the plate in the middle.
