Description

What will ceramics look like in 20, 50, or even 100 years? This engaging lecture explores the future of ceramics, where social and environmental responsibility take center stage.

We’ll break down key concepts in sustainable and eco-critical ceramics, highlighting creative practices that go beyond greenwashing to make a real impact.
