About this class

Sound is an immediate and physical material — it reacts to pressure, rhythm, and touch. In this workshop, I work with plate technology (construction ceramics), a method that provides direct access to form, surface and structure.

As an artist, I convey sound not only as a craft, but as a creative medium that opens up space for experiment, memory and individual forms of expression. The format offers individuals or groups the opportunity to get to know this process in a concentrated session — also as a private creative event or team format.

What you’ll do in the class

  • Introduction to materials, tools and basic techniques of working with clay plates
  • Demonstration of cutting, joining, building and structuring
  • Independent design of objects or vessels
  • Individual artistic support throughout the process

Working with clay plates provides immediate control over form and area and at the same time invites experimental decisions.

The session is process-oriented, but the resulting pieces can still be fired:

5€ — Schrühbrand

10€ — Scrub burn + glaze + glaze burn

Collection of the finished work after approximately 2-3 weeks.

Who is the class suitable for?

  • beginners without previous knowledge
  • People interested in working artistically with material
  • Group formats or creative events
  • People who want to try out ceramic practice without long-term course commitment
