From 2010 till 2014 I had been researching the designs of the textiles used in the religious rituals for my Ph.D. thesis. The idea of this sculptural installation was based on the concept of the prayer rugs of Anatolians. The prayer rugs are used by Muslims to perform a religious everyday duty – Namaz. Namaz is one of the Five Pillars in the Faith of Islam and an obligatory religious duty for every Muslim. It is a physical, mental, and spiritual act of worship that is observed five times every day at prescribed times. In this ritual, the worshiper starts standing, opens the hands, bows, prostrates, and concludes while sitting on the ground. In Anatolia Region prayer rugs are not only the main textile piece used by religious people in everyday duties but also take an incredibly important place in the dowry trunk. There was tradition (still it is alive in the some regions of Turkey) to give prayer rugs like a gift to the future mother and father in law. Not less important is to mention that unique hand made carpets were usually made by women. Therefore it can be said that prayer rugs are important for a woman to express her personal creativity and to develop spiritual and psychical attitudes. In my project I created 5 different female figures from felt following the poses of the body performing namaz steps: standing figure with open hands (TEENAGER), standing figure with hands on the chest (BRIDE), bowing figure (MOTHER), prostrating figure (NEWBORN), sitting on the ground figure (GRANNY). Each figure represents one period of the women’s life from the birth till the senescence. I decided to bring to life these women, whose are in the symbolic and real pray all their life. I decided to reorganizes the pray steps depending on the felling I want to impart to the viewer and to reflect each character of particular period (person). Therefore for a newborn I chose the most “innocent” and vulnerable position (prostrating position). For better expression of the feelings during adolescence I decided to create teenagers figure using open hand position. Open hands symbolizes the curiosity and self-presumption and in other hand timidity of the young girl. The third figure symbolizes the bride, stoned face, calm position, and hands tightly locked on the chest, this biggest figure symbolize the middle way of the women. Wedding day is the happiest and the scariest day of the women’s life.. It is the end of being “little daddy’s girl” and first steps to the new life with the hope and obscurity. Next to the bride there are sorrow and happiness walking together.. The third figure symbolizes motherhood; the woman is caring a baby on her back. The child is the only one live being whos can make women carry him or her all there life even on the back. The child is the heaviest and in the same time the lightest weight in the woman’s life. The last felt sculpture, so called “Granny” is the position of the sitting on the ground. This figure is the calmest and the brightest of all, I paid a lot of attention to the hands and the face of this old woman. My aim was to reflect and to transfer the beauty of the senescence, to give all my respect to the imperfectness and divinity of the aging woman. This position is the last one and it is the ending/ closing peace of my collection. The old women feels that it is the end, that she lived her life she had her bright and dark moments, now she is calm and spiritually elevated.. To finish this felt collection took 1,5 year. I feel that it is one of my work which has my soul reflection in it, every figure is something like self-research, it is like going step by step in to deepest corners of the woman’s soul..
