Paper making
Paper can be seen as more than just a material, but also as a medium and a concept. As a medium, paper has been used for centuries to convey ideas, stories, and images, serving as a vehicle for communication and expression. However, paper also embodies a broader concept, representing the human desire for knowledge, creativity, and connection. Paper symbolizes the pursuit of literacy, education, and artistic expression, as well as the social and economic systems that have developed around these pursuits.
