A Vessel for Home – Hand-Building Pottery Workshop with Violaine Verry
As part of London Craft Week, join Violaine Verry for a reflective ceramics workshop exploring the idea of home through form. Homes are shaped not only by architecture and history, but by the objects we live with: vessels that hold, protect and gather meaning over time. In this guided hand-building session, participants will create small ceramic vessels inspired by their personal sense of home, whether that is a memory, ritual, place or feeling. Working with simple pinch and coil techniques, the workshop will focus on form, balance and the expressive qualities of clay. At the end of the session, participants will choose one piece to be fired. All pieces will be finished in a gloss white glaze, emphasising light, shadow, the soft earthy tones of the clay and the subtle marks of the hand. Finished pieces will be ready for collection from the Museum approximately 3 to 4 weeks later, and participants will be contacted by email once they are ready.
