View Larger Image and Additional Photos of Ahmet Giray YılmazAbout Ahmet Giray Yılmaz : He was in love with the design and the denim fabric. This love began in childhood. Decided to study design and art. Decided to be an expert in textile field. He studied textile technology in detail. Denim recognized the artistic aspect of the fabric. And denim wanted to tell this aspect of the fabric. He told the students of denim cloth fashion design. He wanted to turn all kinds of objects into artistic works.
"Art and design is a journey to dreams."
Absolutely true. That’s exactly where he grows. It isan adventure in which its beginning and end are unclear. It contains everything about a human being. Sometimes
it overstrains you. It makes you feel like a bottomless pit full of indiscipline. You can disappear at any moment or
get lost in it. However, there is an undeniable fact that it will always make you happy no matter what it is. And this journey allows you to start every new day with mystical stories. Consequently, it expresses an enthusiastic
passion for me. A passion like the burning of the sun. The discipline of design which exists under the roof of art can be revealed within the very nature of the designer candidate after long years. There is a saying “A Life
Is Not Enough for Art.” I will need years to say I am doing this job deservedly. For me, the limits of human life are
not sufficient to actualize a sophisticated art unless he is very lucky and has not left the roof of art. It will take
you to say ‘’Now I’m really a full-fledged artist’’ for 60 or 70 years to come. Of course, this is a philosophy taught to me by my masters and art disciplines. For others, this
thought may not be accepted as it is. Considering the fact that this has already become the basis of modern
art. Interrogating the unacceptable. In this context, the designer walks a long path as he grows up. In order to
reach the conclusion, he/she has to work hard and has a high level of professional knowledge. The most important of these is to expertise the knowledge of ‘Light and
Shadow’ techniques.
