Your instructor will cover forming consistent links, shaping techniques, and strategies for maintaining flexibility and movement in clay. The process itself is rhythmic and meditative, and no prior ceramics experience is necessary.
This is a 6 week class that meets on Monday evenings from 6-9 PM starting on July 10th.
About your instructor: Katherine has been making tactile chain sculptures for about three years now. Inspired by Ruth Borgenicht's work, they have created their own process for making woven chains out of ceramics for sensory and aesthetic joy. Functional pieces in the same category as other sensory objects, such as prayer beads, worry stones, and the modern fidget spinners. The process and the form both act functionally as a tactile experience that naturally invokes focus. Katherine has taught at Berkeley Potter’s Studio as well as other studios in the Bay Area.
