The Serpent Queen of Anatolia (Glass Painting)
Step into a legend that has been told for centuries: Shahmaran, the Serpent Queen of Anatolia. In mythology, she is more than just a figure – she embodies the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Her story speaks of wisdom, transformation, and renewal, reminding us that change and new beginnings are an inseparable part of life.
According to folk belief, the image of Shahmaran brings abundance, protection, and positive energy into any space where it is placed. She is not only an artistic motif but also a powerful symbol that carries meaning and energy into everyday life.
Just like Shahmaran’s cycle, glass itself goes through its own transformation: fragile and ordinary in its raw state, it faces the fire, softens, reshapes, and is reborn as something luminous, strong, and unique. In this workshop, you will experience both the mythical journey of Shahmaran and the transformative process of glass coming together.

Camda Atelier & Gallery
Camdal Atelier is an international studio founded by Enver Camdal in the 1970s, renowned for its capacity and experience in transforming diverse materials into works of art. After completing numerous art projects in Istanbul using mosaic, ceramic, copper, and concrete relief techniques, Enver Camdal continued his artistic journey in Australia in the mid-1980s. There, he realized extensive mosaic, sculpture, and relief works in public spaces across Sydney and Melbourne, occasionally collaborating with Helen Bodycomb and Geof Hogg on public art projects.
Returning to Turkey in 2000, the artist, alongside Hacer Koca, revitalized their studio, incorporating fusion glass and terrazzo techniques into their repertoire. They have since created unique projects for numerous interior and exterior spaces and public areas, integrating their collective experience and technical expertise.
Since 2018, the studio’s artistic endeavors have continued in Melbourne with a gallery studio established by Hacer Koca and Ekim Roya Kose under the consultancy of Enver Camdal. Here, they continue to explore their diverse techniques and create impactful artworks.
