From the ancient times till today, ceramics has arguably been amongst the few mediums to have persevered through thousands of years - the oldest known ceramic artifact is dated as early as 28,000 BCE during the late Palaeolithic period. This perseverance has, of course, met with iterations and evolutions that have allowed it to stay relevant in our contemporary world. However, many traditional techniques have remained as the backbone of this craft. Subtle adaptations in techniques have allowed for large possibilities, while experimental approaches have allowed for unconventional and avant-garde creations.
