Pottery in Iraq has deep roots, where acient civilisations relied on clay to build their homes, shape their cooking utensils, as well as to make their ovens.
Adel al-Kawwaz is an expert in spining the potter's wheel, creating the wet clay and turn it into a smooth jug. Moreover, his family is well known for this millennia-old Iraqi craft, but Kawwaz is struggling to keep this old craft alive as many people are now using modern plastic.
