It is important that traditional wovens and motives have been reviving in the memory of every generation for hundreds of years as if they are a living being and carring over their symbols into our day, the modern times. The word tradition is etymologically derived from the word “traditio” in Latin and means “to hand” . In other words, it is the transmittal of something, but something to be preserved, from one generation to the next and traditions are within people. The word culture derives from “Cultura” in Latin and means “turning green”. One of the cultures of public linked with tradition is handicraft, and particularly weaving within handicraft. If one makes an inquiry into the motives and symbols that have been used for years traditionally, one realizes that their significance is undeniable as they protect what is precious and appeal to people’s spirits. Having adopted these thoughts in the guidance of my educational background in the same field, I set out with “yeldoku” to carry forward the traditional aspects to the next generations without restricting it but by extending it with the designs which are a product of my thoughts and soul. I am working with real craftsmen who have been weaving their own wovens for almost generations with the traditional methods. I wanted to create a modern version and offer it for daily use through the protection of local motives and particular forms of woven . I also wanted that we see the precious thoughts of our ancestors who call us every day through a table cloth and make us feel the existence of a soul reflecting our ideals. It is Yeldoku’s ideal.
