The exhibits were selected from 278 entries sent to the Department of Fine Arts, Photography and Exhibition under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism by 120 artists across the country.
The jury also presented six prizes to outstanding entries in the two categories of artistic ceramics and applicable ceramics.
The works on display reflect the artists’ creativity, innovative techniques, experimental designs and decoration styles with pottery.
