Artefaktur

Artefaktur sounds like a big and scary word, but it's actually quite simple. Artefaktur means creating something with your hands, like making a painting, drawing, or sculpture.

Imagine that you have some playdough and you want to make a person. You can use your hands to shape the playdough into the body of a person, add legs, arms, a head, and maybe even some clothes. When you are done, you have created an artefaktur.

People have been making artefakturs for thousands of years! In the olden days, people made artefakturs by carving rocks, bones, or wood. They made things like tools, weapons, and furniture.

Today, artefakturs can be made out of all sorts of different materials like plastic, metal, or even food! There are many artists who are famous for making artefakturs, and you can even make your own artefaktur too! All you need is your imagination, some materials, and your hands!
