Over four weeks, this course we will take an experimental approach to working with different clays and slips to encourage outcomes like cracks, warping and explosions- things we are often told to avoid when working with ceramics. Practising creative rule breaking we will get unexpected original results that can be manipulated into interesting shapes and textures. We will look deeply into the material itself and explore how we can take advantage of timings, mixing things up and pushing things to breaking point.

This course is suitable for both beginners and people who have worked with clay but perhaps not explored this side of it.
