Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- As part of a visit to the city of Karamay in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (Northwest China), we visited the ceramics museum.
First of all, the museum staff told us about the centuries-old ceramic products stored here, including teapots, bowls, bowls, jugs, etc. After that, the museum staff answered questions from the media in detail.
So far I have seen pottery on the Internet and on TV. It would seem easy to make bowls, teapots and jugs. But as it turned out in practice, pottery is also a great art.
After a tour of the museum, we were invited into the large hall. It turned out to be a unique experimental workshop for museum visitors. We started working on a table specially equipped for us with all the necessary items...
We were given a free theme, to mold something familiar to us from ceramic clay. I tried to make my usual teapot and bowl. I thought it was a very simple matter. But, to be honest, it took me half an hour - but it still didn’t turn out the way I wanted. So I realized that practice is important in pottery...
We thanked the Chinese organizers for the impressions we received from making ceramic products.
