|
Dates and times: Thursday 12/3 10-16 (lunch included) Friday 13/3 10-16 (lunch included) This is an intense workshop that will give you the opportunity to experience and learn from the internationally acclaimed Spanish potter José Mariscal Paneque. He is known for his elegant and technically advanced shapes and distinctive texturing techniques. His vases have long slender necks and his moon jars have perfectly balanced proportions. José started his artistic practice at an early age and learnt the craft from his father. Over a long career in ceramics he has become an exceptional potter with a personal throwing technique that he shares in workshops all over the world. He holds the title Master Craftsman of Catalonia. For whom? This workshop is for those of you with some experience in throwing and who want to take your skills to the next level. You want to understand how complex shapes are built to create the perfect balance between tension and elegance. To participate in this workshop you should be quite comfortable centering and lifting a cylinder from 1 kg clay. The course is for adults (16+). Workshop content: Over the days, José will give demonstrations and supervise as we explore and practice his throwing techniques. Under his guidance we will tackle advanced shapes such as long-necked vases and moon jars. In parallell with the throwing practice we will try different decoration techniques that are done on the wheel during different stages of drying. There will be a maximum of 10 participants in the group and tutoring is in English. We work with stoneware clay. What's included? All clay for practice is available and will be continuously reclaimed. Please note that there is no firing and glazing included in this workshop. You are welcome to keep your greenware pieces or have them bisque fired in our studio at an additional cost. We will determine this on site according to your wishes.
