Description
During this workshop, you will join Nic in coiling your own pot in the traditional way using terracotta clay. Nic will guide you step by step starting with the base, how to make coils and attaching layer by layer. He will also demonstrate how he finishes his pots including burnishing, the surface decoration and he will smoke fire a pot to complete the process.
Don’t miss the opportunity to learn more about handbuilt-coil pots produced in the same manner over thousands of years and the knowledge passed down from generation to generation. Nic has won numerous awards and is a master of smoke-fired and saggar-fired pieces. Light lunch and refreshments will be served.
