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: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
