Creative Flow
We are excited to have over 50 registered participants from around the world, including Afghanistan,
Australia, Canada, Egypt, Hong Kong, India, Iran, Italy, Taiwan, Malta, the Netherlands, the Philippines,
Romania, Thailand, the UAE, the UK, and the United States. Their presence will truly make the workshop
cross-cultural. This workshop involved a creative process using the medium of tea. Since tea is a primary beverage in
the East and Asia, it holds significant cultural meaning and is often featured in gatherings, important
meetings, and social events. The various types, colors, and textures of tea can serve as fluid and dynamic
tools for creating impact.
