Miraçname 

Erol Akyavaş created this artwork, Miraçname, using printmaking techniques, processes often associated with mass production rather than unique artistic creation. Notice how the textures and tones create a layered effect, which is achieved through the careful application of ink and pressure, and the skilled hand of the printer. The work's visual impact depends on the artist's mastery of these processes. The printmaking tradition has long been associated with the dissemination of ideas and information to a wider audience. In the context of Akyavaş's work, the medium takes on a new significance, allowing him to explore themes related to cultural heritage, spirituality, and collective memory. By emphasizing the importance of materials, making, and context, we can begin to understand the full meaning of Akyavaş's art, challenging traditional distinctions between fine art and craft and acknowledging the value of skilled labor in the creation of meaningful cultural artifacts.
