Dense with Bougainvillea blossoms, palm trees and domed adobe rooftops, Tunis is a picturesque village that sits between Lake Qaroun and the desert dunes of the Fayoum Oasis. In th e 1980’s, Swiss ceramic artist Evelyn Porret introduced the village children to handicrafts when she founded a pottery school. Using clay from the Nile banks of Aswan, its graduates have become Tunis’s master potters who give the village and its pottery a unique aesthetic and style, adorning the pieces with primitive motifs from the flora and fauna of their surroundings; an identity that cannot be found anywhere else in the world.
