  Description

  Salaam, hello ! Holaa con todos !
  
  Soy Saba i'm Iranian girl living on Amazon of Peru
  I am an autonomous ceramist, which led me to know this beautiful community and so I created this project that aims to rescue this ancestral practice so beautiful and full of wisdom
  
  This beautiful project is located in Puerto Maldonado, Madre de Dios Peru and another city Chazuta, San Martin Peru.
  What I am looking for are people with a lot of enthusiasm and desire to help me in a very interesting and special cultural project.
  The project is about helping the community to recover and rescue the ancient pottery
  
  I am currently looking to improve my brand, my marketing and my content so that more people get to know and bring innovative ideas to continue nurturing this beautiful project that is born from the heart with the purpose of revitalizing ancestral ceramics (in the case of Puerto Maldonado) and in the case of Chazuta the objective is to innovate ceramic pieces with the female ceramists who practice this beautiful art and many other arts such as basketry, embroidery, natural fiber papers etc ...
  
  My goal is to create a laboratory of creation, innovation, highlight the importance of ancestral practices
  
  They focus on my brand and my project that I seek to improve in order to achieve this goal.
  
  The long-term project is to carry out artistic residencies, so that artists or lovers of art and culture or those who seek to know the Peruvian jungle from the ancestral vision of ceramics, can experience it.
  
  I am very open to proposals for improvement and innovation, I am currently the only active ceramist in Madre de Dios, who keeps this practice active in personalized workshops for children and adults.
  
  Write to me without a doubt if you resonate with this project from the heart!

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  You will have the opportunity to be in beautiful nature, learn indigenous art, culture and ancestral knowledge
  Being away from the city and perhaps going back to the past is always necessary, in itself that is what brought me here and I was able to win this project for the community
  If you feel that you should do it, I would be delighted if you contact me.
