3D4M Hosted Visitors from Japan + Uzbekistan

During Summer Quarter, visitors from two countries taught ceramics workshops. Momoko and Tetsuya Otani from Japan gave a public lecture and spent a week in the studio making an impressive array of both traditional and contemporary work. Rustam and Damie Usmanov from Uzbekistan are known for their skill in traditional brushwork patterns. They were visiting Seattle thanks to the Seattle-Tashkent Sister City Association. The generous demonstrations by these artists were enlightening as their work transcended multiple language barriers.
