Ceramic Art

Ceramic art is the art of creating objects from clay and other ceramic materials, which are then fired in a kiln to harden them. The resulting objects can be functional, such as pots, plates, and vases, or purely decorative, such as sculptures or wall hangings. Ceramic art has a long history dating back to ancient civilizations, and it continues to be a popular form of artistic expression today.

Ceramic artists use a variety of techniques to shape the clay, including hand-building, wheel-throwing, and casting. They may also use various glazes, slips, and other surface treatments to decorate the finished pieces. The firing process can also be used to achieve different effects, such as changing the color or texture of the clay.

Ceramic art can be found in many different styles and forms, from traditional pottery to contemporary sculptures. It can be functional or purely decorative, and can be created using a variety of techniques and materials.
