Would you like to produce your own paper to transfer your imagination on it? In this workshop, we embark on a journey inspired by Isabel Muñoz, who searches for the origin of civilization in her works with curiosity and excitement. The children prepare paper pulp with recycling materials and produce their handmade papers by sifting the pulp which they transfer to the water-filled boat. Waiting for their paper to dry, children paint on pre-dried handmade papers inspired by the exhibition.

As artisanship became a part of artistic practices with the blurring of art and craft, the use of traditional motifs has also flourished. In this context, how are these motifs currently structured or designed beyond their traditional connotations?
In his book exploring the cultural history of souvenirs, Rolf Potts discusses how such objects assume meaning through personal stories: Objects turn into memories with the stories they hold.
Objects also bear the memory of the geography to which they relate. Ceramics, with soil as their primary material, are directly linked to the land where they are produced: forging a direct relationship with earth, ceramics bear the memory of the soil where they come from.
