Clay Bird or Seal Workshop
with Krishna Alageswaran
Saturday 14 August 11am – 3pm
The workshop will be a an informal session to hand sculpt a clay bird or seal under the supervision of Krishna. You will be shown how to make a pinch pots and to sculpt the tail and head. The pieces will be made using Terracotta Clay and can be decorated with slip. You may take your work away with you or you can leave it with Krishna to fire.
Krishna is a ceramic artist specialising in hand-building sculptural forms, with complex, textured and patterned surfaces achieved by applications of layers of slip oxides and dry glazes through multiple firings. The surfaces reference the passing of time on the human landscape.
The workshop is suitable for all ages but children should be accompanied by an adult. This is a messy workshop so please ensure you dress appropriately.
Space will be limited to 6-8 people per hour so although booking is not essential it would help to avoid disappointment.
