with Barbara Campbell-Allen & Hillary Kane
with Barbara Campbell-Allen & Hillary Kane
Delighting in the element of serendipity and spontaneous beauty, this workshop will explore the kiss of flame and the natural glaze effects of atmospheric wood-firing in Gaya CAC’s anagama (Japanese-style wood kiln) with visiting wood-fire specialist, Barbara Campbell-Allen (Australia) and in-house wood-firer, Hillary Kane.
Participants will experiment with the variables of clay bodies and flashing slips, surface texture and vessel shape as design factors influencing the subtle and dramatic effects of a natural ash surface.
An intensive two-weeks: work will be produced in the studio, loaded, fired for 2 ½ days of stoking, and then unloaded after cooling for the work of the flame to be revealed and displayed. Evenings will be punctuated with slides and films on wood-fire.
Open to all levels of experience
