Plantal Motifs with Underglaze Painting

Participants take a guided tour of PƎRⱯ Reverse and are inspired by the installation guzmania2103 in the Globals section of the exhibition, which uses the guzmania plant as a symbol of local-global dichotomies. The participants reinterpret the plant forms that they often encounter in everyday life in the city with a different eye and transfer their drawings onto biscuit ceramic plates. The transferred drawings are glazed after the application of ceramic decoration techniques.

Note: Participants can pick up their ceramics, which will be sent for firing, from the museum within the time and date intervals to be shared with them.
