SÓ-ÉS HAMU MÁZ

course fee: 550,000 HUF.
course fee: 550,000 HUF.
A 10 day course to explore using vibrant slips and ash glazes. The first days will be making work by throwing or handbuilding followed by unconventional firing processes to enrich your surfaces. The firing process leaves its mark on the work, developing textures and movement within the fluid glaze, producing unique surfaces.
Egy 10 napos tanfolyam az élénk masszák és hamumázak használatának felfedezésére. Az első napokon korongozással vagy kézi építéssel készítünk tárgyakat, majd szokatlan égetési eljárásokkal gazdagítjuk a felületeket. Az égetési folyamat nyomot hagy a munkán, textúrákat és mozgást ad a folyékony mázban, egyedi felületeket létrehozva.
Daniel makes one-off thrown salt and ash glazed stoneware. He explores unconventional firing processes to enrich his thrown pots, which are contemporary and individual. Vibrant slips and ash glazes are used which encourage the firing process to leave its mark on the ware, developing textures and movement within the fluid glaze, producing unique works to be explored beyond their surface.
My fascination with experimental and unconventional firing techniques has never gone away and I now salt fire in a combination of purpose-built and recycled kilns. At the moment, I am firing a radically modified 1970s Cromartie electric kiln, now running on gas – pushing the boundaries of traditional salt glaze to enrich my pots. Vibrant slips and ash glazes are applied in multiple layers to encourage the firing process to leave its mark on the ware
Daniel egyszer-készített só- és hamumázas kőedényeket készít. Szokatlan égetési eljárásokat fedez fel, hogy gazdagítsa korongozott edényeit, amelyek kortársak és egyediek. Élénk színű folyékony masszák és hamumázak kerülnek fel rétegekben, amelyek arra ösztönzik az égetési folyamatot, hogy nyomot hagyjon a kész terméken, textúrákat és mozgást kialakítva a folyékony mázban. Ezzel egyedi műveket hoz létre, amelyeket a felületükön túl is lehet vizsgálni.
“A kísérleti és szokatlan égetési technikák iránti rajongásom soha nem szűnt meg, és ma már célzottan megépített és újrahasznált kemencék kombinációjában égetem a sómázas termékeimet. Jelenleg egy radikálisan átalakított, 1970-es évekbeli Cromartie elektromos kemencében égetek, amely most gázzal működik - a hagyományos sómázzal történő égetés határait feszegetve gazdagítom edényeimet. Az élénk színű engóbok és hamumázak több rétegben kerülnek fel, hogy az égetési folyamat nyomot hagyjon a tárgyakon.”
