(w)aardewerk showcases different perspectives on sustainable ceramics, highlighting both traditional and innovative approaches.
Sustainable ceramics
With (w)aardewerk, Crafts Council Nederland draws attention to urgent issues surrounding the extraction of raw materials in relation to the production of ceramics.
