Hands-on Soda Fire and Throwing Workshop with Matt Long June 1 - 5, 2024
This course is all about making and altering pots on the wheel. Our concentration will cover function, technique, comfort, aesthetics and self-expression. We will also be working on creating line and gesture in the surface in a myriad of ways including the use of thick slip. We will also be firing work in the soda kiln, which will include lecture and demonstration in this hands-on workshop! We will be making pots (day 2,3) having discussion on what makes a good pot, as we begin to explore the gestural qualities of porcelain. There will be one soda firing, which means that you will have many pots that do not get soda fired. These pieces will be bisque fired for you to take home, or you can make other arrangements with SCAC.All students should have some experience with clay and be able to throw pots. (Intermediate throwing ability is best)
We will be working approx. 9-4 with a break for lunch. Possible longer onthe day of firing.
