Kurinuki
Kurinuki is an centuries-old Japanese handbuilding technique that involves carving the exterior form from a solid block of clay and then hollowing it out. This more sculptural approach allows for complete freedom in the shaping of vessels. We will explore various forms from tea bowls to bottles, vases, boxes, and large bowls. Kurinuki is also useful in making sculptural forms. Stoneware clay; bisque fire only. All levels. Lower clay studio.
