Which modes of transport do you use in your daily life? What are the sights you see when you look around while traveling in these vehicles? In this workshop, we look at the works of Clara Barthold Mayer including the sultan’s imperial caïques, discuss the modes of transport used in the past and imagine the vehicles of the future. After the guided tour of the online exhibition, we start our workshop where we paint landscapes that portray our imaginary future using watercolor. In this workshop, we improve our fine motor skills and boost our creativity.
