Sarı started his studies at Yeditepe University, Department of Visual Communication and Design, Istanbul between 2001 and 2002.[2] He continued his studies in Çanakkale On Sekiz Mart University, Faculty of Fine Arts, Department of Ceramic between 2002 and 2006 and later attended the same university for his Masters' degree between 2007 and 2010 where he completed his master’s degree in the Department of Ceramics, Çanakkale 18 Mart University in 2010 where his master’s thesis project "Low-temperature Chromated Glazes" was published under Scientific Research Projects.[3] It was during this time during his studies, he focused on artistic ceramic forms along with experimental ceramic technology supporting these forms. In 2006, Sarı worked at Civelek Porselen ceramic and diamond research laboratory with Nuri Civelek on sinter, alkaline metals and ceramic matrix composites where he participated in research and development of domestic manufacturing of refractory armor and sintered alumina supported ballistic vests.[4] Sarı has also worked with experimental ceramicist/sculptor İbrahim Tayfun Durat between 2005 and 2009 on low-temperature glazed and chromated glazes.[2]

Since 2011 Sarı has been working on creating ceramics works that take advantage of the glow properties of the radioactive uranium silicates. Sarı has been working with technology and art in parallel implementing works of art by using the techniques of uranium silicate’s phosphorus effects on porcelain bodies since 2011.[5] According to Sarı, there are two shades of red (copper red and uranium red) that are very difficult to achieve in glaze and ceramics and that a small surface of uranium red can be produced by burning uranium nitrate in high temperature. He was able to experiment with radioactive rare elements during his PhD studies in Sofia and that he was able to successfully significantly reduce alpha particle radiation from glaze and ceramics using radioactive uranium by using lead and lithium oxide layer coating which is further coated by glass layers.[6] On 30 November 2012 Sarı held a seminar on "Uranium in Ceramic Art" at Vuzf University and also held a solo exhibition demonstrating this work with red uranium.[6][7][8] On 27 June 2012 Sarı gave a guest lecture and held a workshop on uses of rare elements in ceramic glazes and glass bodies, cromatic glazes, Turkish blue glaze, preparation of safety floric acid bath for mat glazing at University of Applied Arts Vienna.[9] On 15 September 2012 Sarı presented his paper with the topic "Uses of The Rare Elements into Ceramic Glazes and Glass Bodies" in the Sixth International Eskişehir Terra Cotta Symposium where he discussed the behavior within glazed ceramic/porcelain bodies of attained rare earth elements.[10][11]

In 2013, Sarı completed his Ph.D. degree at the Department of Ceramics and Glass, National Art Academy in Sofia, Bulgaria with the thesis titled "reaching copper-red glazes in low-temperature and oxygenated atmosphere".[2][12] Sarı has resumed his technological research during his Ph.D. studies where he developed "smoke-free reduction techniques" in electric ovens and interior places by reduction of petroleum. With this new method, the artist achieved to provide copper red color difficult to provide in ceramic technology.[13] Sarı is also a member of the International Association Of Art Turkish National Committee UNESCO AIAP, since 2007.[14]

Art activity

"Aqua" by Sencer Sarı that was awarded the Şima Art Special Award

On 2 May 2006, "Aqua" by Sarı was awarded the Şima Art Special Award in 9th Rotary International Golden Jug Ceramic Contest at İzmir Art and Sculpture Museum and Gallery and was exhibited until 14 May.[15][16] Between 1 and 20 November 2006 Sarı participated in the mixed exhibition 5th Smoke Firing Ceramic Workshop held at İzmir Adnan Franko Art Gallery.[2][17] On 12 September 2007 Sarı held a solo exhibition titled "Masks & Sensations" (Turkish: Duyumlar ve Maskeler) at UNESCO – AIAP International Plastic Arts Association Gallery, Istanbul.[18] Later that year on 27 October he had participated in two separate group exhibitions titled Mediterranean Sea & Homesickness (Turkish: Akdenizlilik ve Gurbet) by UNESCO AIAP[19][20] and mixed group exhibition by Turkish Collective Artists’ Union at 2007 Tüyap Artist Art Fair.[2]

On 30 November 2012 Sarı held a seminar on Uranium in Ceramic Art at Vuzf University and also held a solo exhibition at Vuzf University exhibition hall with an "Anemones in Red" theme demonstrating his work with red uranium.[6][7][8][21] Between 20 October and 7 November 2014 he held a solo exhibition with the title "From the Sea" (Turkish: Denizden Gelenler) at Tünel Art Gallery, Istanbul.[22][23] Between 8 and 16 November 2014 Sarı participated as a part of the Collective Artists’ Union exhibition titled "So as not to forget" (Turkish: Unutmamak İçin) in the 24th Istanbul Art Fair held at TÜYAP Fair and Convention Center, Istanbul.[24]
