Mural art projects in Turkish schools

Overview

Students at the Güzel Sanatlar Lisesi in the Yenişehir district of Diyarbakır are utilizing school walls as canvases to enhance their artistic abilities. Under teacher guidance, students are transitioning from traditional canvases to large-scale murals and motifs within school corridors.

Sıdık Yergin, Head of the Visual Arts Department, stated that working on this scale teaches students to manage composition and color harmony on larger surfaces. The initiative aims to encourage cooperation and foster a sense of pride in the school environment. Plans are underway to expand these installations to other areas, such as music corridors and upper floors.
