From Mud to a Shape
From Mud to a Shape | Monika Dokoupilová [VIRTUAL WORKSHOP]
Monika Dokoupilová | Department of Art Education, Faculty of Education, Palacký University Olomouc, Czech Republic
About
In this workshop, we will return to the fundamental methods of manipulating clay, exploring its natural properties and the process that leads to shaping.
Our focus will be on engaging with clay in its raw form, experiencing its potential for both creative expression and emotional connection. This tactile engagement will serve as the foundation for the subsequent stages of working with ceramic material.
We will expand our approach to clay, going beyond traditional techniques to embrace a broader exploration of its possibilities. Through hands-on experience, we will move from the initial haptic interaction with mud clay to the development of a finalized form, allowing us to solidify both the shape we discover and the artistic intention behind it.
