It comprises four chapters. The first chapter elucidates the research problem, summarized by the possibility of answering the following question: What is the regular and irregular in the works of the potter Shinyar Abdullah? The first chapter also highlights the importance and need for the research, identifies crucial terminologies, and outlines the research's objective: defining "the regular and irregular in the works of the potter Shinyar Abdullah." Additionally, this chapter delimits the research by studying the artist's artistic works within the specified time frame. The second chapter is dedicated to the theoretical framework, pivotal indicators, and previous studies. It contains two sections: the first discusses the regular and irregular in ancient philosophical thought, while the second section is titled "Contemporary Iraqi Ceramics: A Study in Form and Style." The third chapter includes the research procedures, which involved defining the research community comprising a collection of pottery works, specifying the research sample and its selection method, using the sample analysis tool, determining the research methodology (descriptive method), and subsequently analysing the research sample consisting of three models. The fourth chapter is allocated for reviewing the results, conclusions, and recommendations. Among the key findings are: 1- The research sample models revealed a clear interest in the duality of the regular and irregular within the ceramic form's structure. This transition from the perceptible attribute to the cognitive aspect elevated the abstraction and reduction characteristic within the formal system. 2- The geometric form's specificity was associated with formal and technical treatments that further enhanced the rhythmic appearance of the regular and irregular, as evident in the research sample models. The principal conclusions were: 1- The diverse techniques and their varied blending within a single ceramic achievement enable both the regular and irregular aspects to manifest according to the type of technical work associated with each. Followed by recommendations, suggestions, the reference list, and the bibliography.
