About this class
Join this three-part ceramic workshop at 90mil Berlin and create your own handmade piece from start to finish. Whether you want to make a candle holder, jewellery holder, soap dish, small shelf, or a small sculptural object, you will be guided through the full creative process.
In this workshop, I will share the techniques I use in my own sculptural practice, with a focus on building delicate forms supported by strong structures. You will learn how to plan an object, turn fluid ideas into stable clay forms, and develop your own design into a finished ceramic piece.
This workshop is open to all skill levels, and no previous experience is needed.

Who is the class suitable for?
This workshop is for anyone who wants to learn essential ceramic handbuilding techniques and build the skills to work more independently in the future. It is ideal for people who want to understand how to plan a ceramic sculpture structurally, while also learning how to combine that approach with making functional objects. The workshop especially suits creative participants who want to experiment, explore bold forms, and develop their own visual language in clay.
