This is a slow and calm session creating your own small vessels or vases.
Kurinuki means to hollow out or carve from a solid block of clay, during this process the potter may take a tool or object to slowly remove clay in search of its form. Kurinuki has been described as discover by digging as the form emerges from the clay rather than the potter creating it.
This workshop is suitable for all levels including beginners. Clay will be provided and tools will be available for use. Participants are more than welcome to bring their own carving tools if they wish.
The workshop will be run by Kurinuki expert, Kristen Calder from Bravery Inc.
During the workshop you will explore Kurinuki using soft and hard clays with lots of tips and techniques shared along the way as you make your original vessel.
