From 1999 to 2015, she headed a children\u2019s ceramic modelling and drawing workshop. In 2007, she co-founded the \u201cClay Office\u201d of the Georgian Ceramic Art and Crafts Foundation; in 2013, she founded the Georgian porcelain creative workshop \u201cWhite Studio\u201d; and in 2014, she founded the first Georgian ceramics centre and gallery \u201cWorkshop\u201d.<\/p><p class=\"isSelectedEnd\">Since the 2000s, she has participated in local and international exhibitions, ceramic symposia, and conferences. Her activities also include curating and organizing ceramic festivals, contributing to the development and promotion of contemporary ceramic practice in Georgia.<\/p><p>The main field of Eristavi\u2019s artistic practice is ceramic sculpture.
