NERIKOMI workshop
Nerikomi workshop Our most colorful and visually exciting workshop is focused on the nerikomi technique - working with colored clay, where the pattern is not created on the surface, but permeates the entire material. The technique has its origins in Japan, where people traditionally worked with layering and stacking differently colored clays. Today we see it as an open space for working with color, structure and your own expression.

NERIKOMI workshop
About WorkshopDuring the workshop, you will learn how to color your clay using colored pigments, how to mix subtle and contrasting shades of clay and how to further process them into layers and compositions. We will stack the clay, cut it and gradually reveal the patterns that are created inside. The workshop also includes modeling itself – we will show you how to connect individual parts, shape them, or use simple forms. You choose the resulting object according to your own needs – it can be a bowl, a saucer, or you can experiment freely. As a bonus, we have templates for various mugs and vases available, in collaboration with a Boston artist who works under the FROMFRAN brand. Her templates will help you achieve the perfect shape and are available only with us. We emphasize the quality of the material, detail and individual approach. The workshop takes place in a smaller group to allow for focused work and guidance throughout the entire process. The workshop is suitable for beginners who want to go more in-depth, as well as for those who already work with ceramics and want to expand their techniques.

The finished products will be dried and fired in our studio and will be ready for pick-up. We will inform you of the date in person at the workshop and then send you an email. Nerikomi is a process that cannot be completely controlled – and that is its strength.
