The Shape of Summer - Ceramic Workshop

The Shape of Summer - Ceramic Workshop
陶藝工作坊
一塊平平無奇的陶泥可以成為日常生活中常用的杯碟,亦可以成為點綴生活的擺設,更可以成為博物館的珍藏。如果你手上有一塊陶泥,你會把它塑造成甚麼模樣呢?

今年夏天,GE邀請你暫時放下繁重的學業,走出校園,在寧靜的午後用陶藝記錄生活,親手創作出屬於你獨一無二的作品。七月每個星期五,陶藝導師會教導大家陶藝製作的技巧和知識,並讓參加者親手創作自己的作品。完成工作坊後,每位參加者可以帶走兩件作品。

約定你一起探索陶泥的特性和質感,釋放想像力,期待看到你的作品!


Artwork is always a way to explore the possibility of anything in daily life – anything fun, anything memorable, anything meaningful… anything you can think of. This summer, GE invites you to join our ceramic art journey to explore a new way to record your life and express yourself.
 
Experienced instructors from Tung Yao Ceramics will guide you to experience the therapeutic and relieving charm of ceramic art. During the 4-week workshops, you will have a hands-on experience building your own pieces from scratch. Each participant will create 2 pieces of work in this workshop series.
 
No worries. You don’t need any prior knowledge to enjoy art. All levels are welcome. Just relax and explore the shape of your summer.
