We are delighted to be hosting Kate Marotz for a solo exhibition; artist talk and a 2 day weekend workshop. Kate is an extremely talented ceramic artist specializing in hand built sculptural forms. Her beautiful surfaces are a combination of stoneware, fine slip (Terra Sigillata) and borax to bring out a speckle texture. She draws inspiration from her surroundings which happen to be our own state of Wisconsin! Kate is the current president of WI Craft, She has exhibited throughout the country and is published in Ceramics Monthly and Pottery Making Illustrated.
Come join us and learn from this amazing artist.
Schedule:
One-day: The first day of the workshop will focus on coil and pinch construction. The tools and techniques Kate uses will be introduced, giving participants time to create using the demonstrated processes. A variety of handles and trimming kurinuki-style will be covered during the first day.
Two-day: The second day of the workshop will focus on terra sigillata (a fine particle slip application with added color) Participants will be provided with videos, recipes, and a guide that Kate wrote to help you create your own terra sigillata. Additionally, the use of washes will be discussed and demonstrated to show how to achieve an atmospheric look to electric fired work. Students will need to bring a bone dry piece using cone 6 clay for this hands on application.
