ceramic art

Ceramic art involves creating objects from clay that are then hardened by heat. This medium can include pottery, sculptures, tiles, and decorative pieces. Artists shape the clay into various forms, often employing techniques like hand-building or wheel-throwing. Once shaped, the pieces are fired in a kiln, which makes them durable and often waterproof. Ceramics can be further enhanced with glazes, adding color and texture. This art form has a rich history across cultures and serves both functional and aesthetic purposes, showcasing creativity, craftsmanship, and the interplay between form and function.
