Mother Tongue is a cultural hub & gallery specialising in works from Turkey. Founded by a Tottenham-based Turkish artist Melis Erdem, Mother Tongue was born from her desire to tell the stories of her homeland through a creative lens. The motivation behind the project is to promote a better understanding of Turkey's rich heritage, at the same time as advocating slow and meaningful consumption.

Alongside a Journal and an A-Z on references significant to Turkey. the platform includes a hand-picked collection, which is made up of traditional and contemporary examples of ceramics, textiles, rugs, paintings, jewellery, clothing and more. With resources always available online, visitors can learn about the creative culture and skill of Turkey, and take a part of it home with them.
