Tickets: £21

Using the slab building technique, you will design and make a geometric vessel, such as a vase or jug. 

You will begin by making a version in paper, that will form the template for your ceramic vessel, where shapes of rolled clay are cut and assembled into a usable vase. 

Vases made in this session will be fired and glazed and added to the gallery studio display, to be returned to participants when the exhibition finishes.

Led by artist and Modern Clay co-director Joanne Masding.

More Information

For this exhibition, our guest curators of the gallery studio are Modern Clay, an artist-led co-operative based in Digbeth, Birmingham. 

Modern Clay are offering four clay-making sessions inspired by the various ways of ceramic making displayed in Takuro Kuwata's work, and led by co-operative members.
