Sydenham Library hosted an Islamic ceramic tile workshop inspired by the intricate tessellations found in mosques around the world.

The workshop was run by the Islamic Museum of Australia, teaching participants how to form clay into clay tiles and imprint geometric patterns found in Islamic art and architecture.

Star Weekly photographer Damjan Janevski visited the library to capture the unique creations.
