The workshop brought together a group of talented Azerbaijani
artists, including Zamig Rzayev, Zaur Kerimkhanov, Shahriyar
Merdiyev, Aysel Naghiyeva, and Kubra Amirzade. Each artist offered
a unique interpretation of the theme “Golden Thread,” which
symbolizes the cultural connections between different eras,
peoples, and artistic traditions.

Throughout the creative process, the participants explored the
expressive potential of ceramics as a medium for bridging the past
and present.

By blending traditional craft techniques with contemporary
forms, they produced artworks that resonate with themes of
continuity, identity, and cultural dialogue.

The project served not only as a space for artistic exchange but
also as an important platform for reflecting on the role of
cultural heritage in contemporary art.

The workshop highlighted the importance of preserving and
reinterpreting craft traditions, as well as integrating them into
modern artistic practices.
