Autumn 12 Day Onggi Masterclass

Dates: October 26th - November 7th, 2024 Learn the rare art of the Onggi technique, a method unique in the world for coil building large pots and forms. Traditionally born out of necessity in Korea, Onggi pots were and still are used today for food fermentation and storage. A quintessential example of how form follows function, both the forms and building techniques are a living art in and of themselves. You will be given your own set of wooden tools to use during the course, and taught how to make coils, flatten the base of the pot, and coil the clay using the “Taryeom” method. Later you will learn how to paddle the form and shape it, giving you a newfound sense of volume and proportion on a large scale. There are only a handful of Onggi masters left in Korea, and even fewer opportunities to learn from one first hand. ****Please note: - Check in between 3pm - 5pm on October 26th (plan to arrive at our studio at this time) - Dinner will be provided together with the other students on October 26th evening. - We begin October 27th with breakfast in our studio from 8:30am - Instruction begins each day at 9:30am, lunch will be provided around 1pm followed by a short break and again practice and instruction until evening from 2:30pm until 5:30pm.
