The Islamic ceramics collection at the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA) offers a luminous journey through centuries of artistry and innovation. From the cobalt elegance of Ottoman Iznik dishes to the intricate mina’i ware of medieval Persia, each piece reflects a fusion of cultural influences and technical mastery. In ikonoTV’s Slow Art format, the subtle glint of lusterware and the rhythmic geometry of glazed tiles unfold gradually, inviting viewers to contemplate the harmony of form and function. These ceramics, once integral to daily life and spiritual practice, now resonate as timeless expressions of beauty and devotion.
