Ceramics Residency
LISBON, ALCANTARA
Explore your creativity and learn how to craft unique objects with your own hands
“
I believe creativity needs time, care, and space to unfold. That’s why I don’t belive in fast results in art practice. I help you follow your curiosity, and shape your own way with clay.
First step. Private session
In this two-hour one-on-one session, we combine conversation and practice. We’ll talk about what brought you here, what you might want to explore. I’ll share my approach to contemporary ceramics — as a slow, intuitive practice — and introduce you to two foundational handbuilding techniques.
