Ceramic Sculpture

24-hour workshop, divided into 6 sessions of 4 hours each

– This course will take place in the residential studio of the 137º project creators, in the Baix Montseny –

 

  • Learn to express yourself through shapes and volumes in our Ceramic Sculpture course.
  • Taking the Ceramic Sculpture course in the environment of Baix Montseny, in the residential studio of the 137º project creators, offers infinite opportunities. First of all, the calm and relaxing atmosphere of the natural environment is very inspiring and conducive to creativity. Being in contact with nature has been shown to help reduce stress and anxiety, which is often reflected in the improvement of the creative process and the quality of the artwork made.
  • The environment of Baix Montseny offers a great variety of shapes, textures and colors that can inspire and enrich the sculptural work. In addition, the connection with nature often awakens that place of consciousness where the most creative ideas gather. We will work from observation, looking for the essence of the forms and pushing the expression of the volumes towards the message we want to convey;
  • You will disconnect from the daily routine, develop your creativity and the control in the mastery of sculptural techniques applied to clay, in a cozy and peaceful environment;
  • Once the form has the desired composition, rhythm and proportions, you will learn to exercise different finishes to generate expression and drama in your ceramic sculpture.

The Ceramic Sculpture course will give you a very clear idea about the possibilities of working in clay the expression of volumes and forms. Once you have finished it you can continue experimenting and exercising the techniques independently in your own studio or, if you don’t have one, take a membership with us.

How are we going to work:

  • We will begin with a theoretical introduction to the art of volume and its expression modalities. We will accompany the process with practical exercises aimed at getting to know and understand the properties of a few different clay bodies, in order to choose the one that is the best for our project;
  • Starting from a given concept, we begin to sketch our sculpture;
  • We will proceed to the construction of our sculptural piece, using techniques such as clay carving, adding, removing, substracting;
  • The final sessions of the course will be dedicated to finishing and decorating our sculpture;
  • Once all the finishing touches are done we leave the piece to dry in the studio, we will fire it for you and we will give you a note once it’s finished and ready to be picked up.
