Pottery Salon

In the pottery class, we all understood that pottery is the art of earth, fire art, in fact, is the art of life. I started from practicing clay, and created my own works by using techniques such as plate surplus, clay bar, kneading and casting.

Pottery lecturer Shi Tao introduced different classification standards of ceramics, such as according to use, according to glaze, according to techniques; The differences between modern ceramics and traditional ceramics are also compared.

He added: "Ceramic art reflects the conflict and collision between Chinese and Western cultures. I hope I can help more people to be influenced by the rapidly developing ceramic art, and I also hope to pass on ceramic, the earliest form of art in the history of human civilization."

A freshman said that as pottery products are favored by more and more people, making pottery with his own hands has become a leisure way for him to relax himself after study, which can not only exercise his hands-on ability, but also give him a more unique understanding of Chinese culture. Ceramic art has become an indispensable aesthetic enjoyment for people today.

Art Salon is an important activity held by Xipu Art Center. Every year, it leads interested Chinese and foreign students and teachers to contact and experience the traditional Chinese culture and feel the charm of culture.
