Ceramics for 8-11s: Poetry & Storytelling

Drawing inspiration from the Themerson and Holmqvist exhibitions this course will bring poetry and storytelling to life. We will create characters, scenery and props in clay developed from our own storyboards, as well as looking at how to bring movement to these objects once they have been fired. We will also explore a range of hand building and decorating techniques and use different materials and surfaces to add texture to our work. There will be an exhibition on the last day for parents and carers to attend.

Alice Foxen is a London based ceramicist who graduated from Brighton University. Alice has worked on a variety of education workshops with children and young adults and has recently completed a residency at the International Ceramics Research Centre in Denmark.
