Ceramics Congress
|
|
The Bi-Annual Ceramic Congress - run by the Ceramic School includes workshops by over 30 ceramists from around the globe.
|
This year I am one of them.
|
Held online over the 3 days from the 27th to the 29th of November.
|
I will be explaining how to create my wafer thin translucent porcelain vessels, shown below.
|
These are ideal to be both viewed in daylight and are wonderful when back lit or internally lit. A battery powered LED strip light with a remote control is ideal.

These unique vessels are formed from layers of thin porcelain and fired to over 1,200 degrees centigrade and they range from tiny sake cups/ egg cups through to large decorative vessels.
|
Made by my unique process of creating layers of ultra thin porcelain by painting coloured liquid porcelain onto a canvas, then adding textures and scrapping back layers to get the desired surface. Stains and oxides mixed with the porcelain give the colours and glazes are sometimes added at the end.
|
The canvas is made into vessels and some are glazed and then all are once fired in the kiln.
|
They are available in a wide range of sizes - from very small "Sake Cups" and small "Dinky Doos" through to Tall and very Large vessels.
