Barış Gün
barbo

Barış Gün (barbo) is a ceramic artist and designer translating the wisdom and cultural heritage of the Middle East into tangible cultural narratives. Her practice positions design as a mediating force—a bridge between the inner self and the world—bringing motifs, beliefs, architectural forms, and stories into everyday life through totem objects, sculptures, tiles, and home goods.

Reinterpreting heritage through contemporary totems and living objects

​

Rooted in the visual and symbolic language of the Middle East, her work draws on ancient rituals, architectural forms, and oral traditions, transforming them into contemporary, tactile experiences.

 

Each piece invites a dialogue where heritage is not preserved behind glass, but reimagined as a living presence in daily rituals — a vessel for intention and a catalyst for personal and collective transformation.
