This workshop is inspired by Paula Rego's large-sized work "Battle of Alcácer Quibir", designed using wool, silk, cotton and various textures on linen fabric. Participants first experience the exhibition with a guide and witness the magical stories of the artist; then, they reflect their imagination in their art by using various colors, patterns and types of fabrics.

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.
How can the future be imagined by looking at a collection or an archive? The lasting quality of ceramics allows us to ponder how the future might be remembered through a ceramics collection, since they render conceivable time eternal.
