Fleurieu Biennale Workshop: Clay as Landscape with Ashlee Hopkins
Advertisement
Join Ashlee at the Fleurieu Arthouse for this special workshop exploring clay as a landscape medium.
This two hour workshop will introduce you to some basic steps to responsible foraging and processing of raw materials that can be used as part of a ceramic practice. This process echoes my work Forest Ochre on Open Form that won the 2024 Fleurieu Biennale Art Prize.
We will work on a series of smaller pinched pots that will hold memories of places. I’ll bring a selection of foraged clay and oxides, and I’ll also send some instructions closer to the workshop for those of you who would like to bring your own foraged clay or oxide.
This workshop will be perfect if you’re new to pottery but love landscapes and anything earthy toned. And if you’re a potter who is new to foraging for raw materials this will serve as a great starting point on this beautiful journey.
What: 2 hour workshop learning to use foraged clay and oxides on pinched pots
When: Saturday the 6th of July from 2-4pm
Where: inside Fleurieu Arthouse, located on Kaurna Yarta at 202 Main Road, McLaren Vale
Cost: $95 early bird (until midnight June 30th), or $120 thereafter
What’s included: all tools + materials to produce a series of small exploratory pots, as well as a glazing and firing service
As the Arthouse is located inside the Hardy’s Tintara precinct you are welcome to purchase wine from the cellar door to consume during the workshop. There is also a cafe inside the Arthouse that you can purchase tea or barista coffee from too!
Please note that refunds in full are available until 48 hours before the workshop, but after this time I cannot offer a refund.
