In this 4-week course, we will learn about the Kurinuki techniques in pottery, which is a traditional Japanese pottery art that requires a lot of carving and/or sculpting a single block of clay. We will start with the basic but essential knowledge and skills, from using the right tools to various carving techniques that will help you to create the form you want. Along the journey, we will be making sculptural but functional cups, containers, and teapots, that each will become truly one-of-a-kind.
Participants are expected to have a basic understanding or previous experience in ceramic making, especially the hand-building techniques (i.e clay wedging and kneading), to help start this course.
This course is offered in two formats: recorded video sessions and in-person meetings. Each week, participants will have access to 2 to 4 exclusive pre-recorded videos. For the in-person sessions, participants are welcome to attend up to two 120-minute class at UPH LV Main Campus, Karawaci, Tangerang, where they will learn with the instructor and use the campus facilities to deepen their knowledge, understanding, and skills in ceramics. Each week, project recommendations will be provided for participants, and these projects will be thoroughly discussed during the in-person sessions.
