In this workshop, participants used clay to create ornamental plates, and hand-crafted them into a variety of forms and patterns.

Participants made decorative plates out of clay. They were able to hand-build the plates in different shapes and designs. On the technical side, they acquired an understanding of the characteristics of clay as they experimented with various hand-building techniques to express their imagination.
