Wendy will be demonstrating the techniques that she has developed over 25 years of working with clay.
You will learn a variety of hand-building techniques which include combined techniques by slab- building, coiling, solid forms, constructing using plaster moulds and formers - all to create sculptural Forms. Wendy will also demonstrate: Carved surface pattern, carving textures, building up layers and creating a three dimensional surface.
There will be time to make at least 3 pieces, solid, slab built and and using combinations of techniques.
The pieces will be glazed using a variety of textural glazes and you will fire them in one of our wood kilns.
Wendy bemutatja azokat a technikáit, amelyeket az agyaggal való munkája során, 25 év alatt fejlesztett ki.
A szobrászati formák létrehozásához, különböző kézzel épített techinkák elsajátítását mutatja majd be a kurzus vezetője a résztvevőknek, többek között olyan kombinált technikákat, mint lapépítés, csavarás, tömör formák, gipszformák és egyéb negatívok felhasználása. Ezen kívül bemutatásra kerülnek még a következő technikák: karcolt felületdíszítések, vésett díszítések, textúrák textúrák, rétegek felépítése és háromdimenziós felület létrehozása.
Lehetőség lesz legalább 3 tárgy elkészítésére: tömör, lapokból épített és vegyes technikákat felhasználva.
A darabokat különböző effect vagy textúrált mázakkal látjuk el, és vagy gázos vagy fás kemencében kerülnek égetésre.
I live near the coast and mountains of North Wales – immersed in geology which continues to be my focus. This interest has evolved into an appreciation of natural form and texture in its entirety. I have been documenting geology, form, surface and texture through drawing, photography, collecting found objects for years. My work is also inspired by monoliths, stone circles, troughs and wheels: forms that capture the majesty of stone.
My work combines the simplicity of form and textural carved elements found within erosion, focusing on sculptural pieces which are no longer a surface quality but become part of the form itself.
“Észak-Wales partjainak és hegyeinek közelében élek - elmerülve a geológiában, amely továbbra is művészi középpontomban áll. Ez az érdeklődés a természeti formák és textúrák teljes körű megbecsülésévé fejlődött. Évek óta dokumentálom a geológiát, a formát, a felületet és a textúrát rajzolással, fényképezéssel és talált tárgyak gyűjtésével. Munkáimat a monolitok, kőkörök, vályúk és kerekek is inspirálják: olyan formák, amelyek a kövek fenségét örökítik meg.
Munkáim az erózióban fellelhető forma egyszerűségét és a texturális faragott elemeit ötvözik, olyan szobrászati darabokra összpontosítva, amelyek már nem felszíni minőséget képviselnek, hanem magának a formának a részévé válnak.”
