SUMMARY:sculpting color & form
DESCRIPTION:We’re beyond excited to welcome renowned ceramic artist Bianca Pintan\, flying in all the way from Australia\, for an exclusive two-day immersive workshop dedicated to exploring bold shapes\, expressive color\, and tactile surface design. \nKnown internationally for her distinctive sculptural language and fearless approach to form and finish\, Bianca’s work celebrates movement\, imperfection\, and the beauty of raw material. This workshop offers participants a rare opportunity to learn directly from her and dive deep into her creative process — from the intuitive shaping of clay to her signature color and surfacing techniques. \nkey learning objectives:\nAn immersive exploration of Bianca’s sculptural philosophy and organic hand-building methods.\nDeveloping an understanding of how shape\, balance\, and surface interact to create emotional and visual impact.\nPractical insight into color theory\, pigment mixing\, and textural layering to achieve Bianca’s signature vibrancy. \nwhat to expect:\nOver two transformative days\, participants will:\nHand-build a sculptural vase using Bianca’s signature organic techniques that celebrate fluidity and spontaneity.\nExperiment with color and texture\, learning Bianca’s process for mixing pigments\, layering tones\, carving\, and surface refinement.\nGain personalized feedback and creative guidance throughout the making process.\nLeave the workshop with a finished sculptural piece that reflects both Bianca’s influence and their own artistic expression. \nThis is a rare chance to slow down\, experiment freely\, and reconnect with the material in a space that celebrates intuition\, creativity\, and the joyful energy of clay. All materials and tools will be provided.

SUMMARY:nerikomi workshop
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a hands-on exploration of Nerikomi\, the Japanese hand-building technique that layers and slices colored clays to create intricate\, naturally marbled patterns within the clay body. Led by acclaimed ceramic artist Maria Economides\, this workshop offers an intimate look into her distinctive process — where rhythm\, patience\, and material intuition converge to form vessels that celebrate the poetry of imperfection. \nParticipants will begin with a live demonstration by Maria\, followed by guided individual practice. Through her process-based approach\, students will discover how color\, texture\, and composition emerge through the thoughtful interaction of clays and pigments. By the end of the workshop\, each participant will complete two hand-built vessels\, each reflecting a different Nerikomi technique and finished using Maria’s unique trimming and surface refinement methods. \nkey learning objectives\nUnderstand the principles of the Nerikomi technique and its applications in contemporary ceramics\nLearn to work with two contrasting clay bodies — white and brown — to explore natural variation and pattern formation\nExperiment with coloring clay using pigments and stains to achieve distinct marbling effects\nHand-build and refine two vessels (up to 30 cm) using two different Nerikomi approaches\nApply Maria’s trimming and finishing techniques to enhance the final form and texture of each piece \nWhat to Expect\nHands-on instruction and live demonstrations by Maria Economides\nGuidance through the entire process — from coloring clay to constructing and finishing vessels\nAll tools and materials provided by the studio\nBisque firing of both vessels included in the workshop price

SUMMARY:onggi workshop
DESCRIPTION:We are thrilled to announce that we will be hosting Master Hyangjong Oh and his assistant all the way from Korea for a 5-day Onggi workshop  \nThis immersive experience will introduce participants to the traditional Onggi hand-building technique\, used to create monumental ceramic vessels rooted in Korean heritage. Under the guidance of the master himself\, participants will explore the physical\, cultural\, and technical depth of Onggi-making—where rhythm\, repetition\, and respect for material come together to shape powerful\, large-scale forms. \nThrough live demonstrations and guided hands-on practice\, students will learn how to construct substantial vessels using time-honored methods passed down through generations. By the end of the workshop\, participants will have gained a deeper understanding of traditional Korean ceramic practices and the discipline required to create monumental Onggi forms. \nkey learning objectives\n\nLearn the foundations of traditional Onggi hand-building techniques\nUnderstand the cultural and historical significance of Onggi vessels\nDevelop skills in constructing large-scale\, functional forms\nPractice rhythm-based coil building and surface refinement\nGain insight into Master Oh’s traditional workflow and philosophy \nwhat to expect\n\nLive demonstrations by Master Hyangjong Oh\nHands-on\, guided construction sessions\nTraditional Onggi forming methods using large volumes of clay\nSupport from both the master and his assistant\nA focused\, immersive studio environment\nCultural insights into Korean ceramic heritage\nA physically engaging and deeply enriching experience

SUMMARY:sculptural ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an immersive\, hands-on exploration of sculptural ceramics with Laura Ramirez. This intensive workshop delves into form\, volume\, and expression through clay\, guiding participants in transforming functional techniques into bold sculptural statements. Through a contemporary\, process-driven approach\, Laura shares her artistic practice—where material sensitivity\, structure\, and storytelling come together to create expressive ceramic works. \nParticipants will begin with live demonstrations by Laura\, followed by guided individual exploration and experimentation. Students will learn how to construct sculptural forms using hand-building techniques\, develop surface treatments\, and refine composition and balance. Emphasis will be placed on pushing boundaries—moving beyond utility into conceptual and expressive territory. \nBy the end of the program\, participants will have strengthened their sculptural vocabulary\, expanded their technical skills\, and developed greater confidence in creating ambitious\, self-directed ceramic pieces. \nkey learning objectives \nUnderstand the foundations of sculptural ceramics and three-dimensional composition\nDevelop hand-building techniques for expressive\, non-functional forms\nExplore surface\, texture\, and finishing approaches to enhance sculptural impact\nLearn strategies for achieving structural balance and stability\nGain insight into Laura Ramirez’s artistic philosophy and creative process \nwhat to expect \nLive demonstrations by Laura Ramirez\nDaily hands-on sculpting sessions\nIndividual and group critiques\nA supportive\, experimental studio environment\nExploration of scale\, texture\, and abstract form\nConcept development and artistic reflection\nA creatively enriching and transformative workshop experience
