About the event

In this workshop, participants will create a semi-regular pattern of octagons and squares inspired by the Taj, the decorative upper piece that crowns the Roshan. They will embellish selected shapes with floral motifs, prepare their own paints using natural pigments and egg tempera, and complete a beautifully handcrafted wooden piece.

Language: Arabic

What will you learn?
Participants will learn to design a geometric pattern inspired by the taj, apply floral motifs, and mix natural pigments with egg tempera.

Who is it for?
This is for anyone interested in art, design, and traditional techniques.
