Pottery break
Gironde Department, Bordeaux
Take a moment for yourself, alone or with friends/family. I will guide you step by step to create a stoneware object of your choice. Two hours of relaxation and disconnection with your hands in the clay.
Highlights
- disconnection: you think of nothing but what you are shaping with the clay
- We take our time; the clay shows us if we're going too fast
- you're proud of yourself and you have the pleasure of having made it with your own hands
Description
The pleasure of working with clay is not just for the initiated. Beginner and curious? This activity is for you.
Over the course of 2 hours, we will shape a piece step by step, using different techniques to choose from: slab construction, coil building, pinch-pot...
We let ourselves be guided by the softness of the contact with the clay and we find ourselves creating, seeing the object take shape. There's no pressure; we're here to have fun and take a break.
You can shape your object using wooden and plaster molds if needed. Once your object is finished, I will let it dry for a few days before a first firing at 980°C. It will then be glazed to make it even more beautiful and shiny. Then it will go back into the kiln at 1220°C. I will contact you to come pick up your finished piece (or it can be sent via Mondial Relay with shipping costs at your expense).

The clay, glazes, and firing are included.
