Heykel.org

Heykel.org is a Turkish sculpture workshop and online order platform that designs and produces custom sculptures for individuals, institutions, and public spaces. According to its official website, the business traces its origins to 2005, when its founder began working professionally as a sculptor; a dedicated workshop was established in 2012, and the digital platform Heykel.org was launched in 2014 to reach a wider audience. The workshop describes itself as offering "20 years of sculptor experience" and positions itself around handcrafted, one-of-a-kind works rather than mass-produced objects. The company's product range covers monumental and commemorative sculpture, decorative sculpture, busts, reliefs, Atatürk statues, and architectural sculpture. Its website organizes work into categories including bronze sculptures, marble and stone-carved sculptures, fiberglass and polyester sculptures, clay and ceramic sculptures, modern and contemporary abstract pieces, mythological figures, miniature figurines, park and garden sculptures, and urban square sculptures. Popular examples highlighted on the site include a bronze equestrian Sultan Alparslan statue, an Atatürk bust, a bull sculpture, a double-headed eagle inspired by Seljuk art, and an equestrian Atatürk monument. The workshop is led by sculptor Volkan Doğan, who is described as having completed his undergraduate education with second-place honors and as shaping the artistic vision of the atelier. The company states that it works with a wide range of materials — metal, bronze, polyester, stone, and clay — using traditional handcraft techniques, and that every commissioned piece is created from scratch as a unique artwork. It also reports participation in artistic projects, events, symposia, exhibitions, fairs, competitions, and workshops, and says it has received national and international awards. Heykel.org operates primarily in the Turkish market, serving both public institutions and private collectors. Its business model combines a physical sculpture workshop with an online ordering and information platform, allowing clients to commission custom works and inquire about pricing directly. The brand is not a publicly listed company and does not appear to be part of a larger corporate group.

Heykel.org describes its history as a journey that began in 2005, when its founder started working professionally in sculpture. In 2012, the workshop was formally established, giving the practice a dedicated physical base. In 2014, the business stepped into the digital world by launching the Heykel.org platform, aiming to reach a wider audience and to make commissioning custom sculpture more accessible. Since its founding, the workshop reports having produced numerous works for art lovers and institutions. It states that it has taken part in artistic projects, events, symposia, exhibitions, fairs, competitions, and workshops, and that these activities have been recognized with national and international awards. Its clientele is described as ranging from public institutions to private collectors, with both monumental and personalized works. The artistic direction of the atelier is attributed to sculptor Volkan Doğan, who is said to have completed his undergraduate education with second-place honors. The workshop emphasizes a philosophy of handcraft and originality: it says it does not do ready-made production and avoids the "coldness" of modern design devices, instead shaping materials such as metal, bronze, polyester, stone, and clay entirely through traditional handwork. Each commissioned piece is described as starting from scratch and becoming a unique artwork in the artist's hands. Over time, the brand has built a portfolio that includes commemorative and monumental sculpture — such as a bronze equestrian Sultan Alparslan statue and an equestrian Atatürk monument — alongside decorative and portrait works like busts, reliefs, and animal figures. Its website organizes these into categories covering bronze, marble and stone, fiberglass and polyester, clay and ceramic, modern and contemporary, mythological, miniature, park and garden, and urban square sculpture. The company continues to operate as a private workshop and order platform based in Turkey.
