Nerikomi & Mixed Techniques Workshop

 

Nerikomi Is a Japanese hand-building pattern technique using colored clay.

‘Neri’ means to mix or blend, and ‘Komi’ means to press. You mix colored clay and then press it together.

The first step is preparing the colored clay, where you mix pigments and stains into the clay.

Then you layered it in different orders and patterns to create a block of clay. After, you slice the block into thin layers. Finally, you make a pattern in a repetitive (or abstract) way from these slices.

This is an introduction to the Nerikomi technique, you will learn how to create the different patterns, and you will make your plate using Nerikomi and a mix of other techniques (Like marbling and clay mix). This is an exciting and satisfying technique, and making it is so fun.

When the project is finished, you will leave it in my studio to get dry. Then, your project will be dipped in clear glaze, fired in my kiln, and will be ready for pickup after two weeks.

 

What can you make? 

One plate with the Nerikomi technique.

Meet your instructor

Hi, I am Kesem, a ceramic designer and a Creative Coach.

I’ve been working with Clay for the last 20 years. I run my Amsterdam Clay studio, making small-batch ceramics collections and working B2B with European shops.

 I have been teaching for 20 years. I gave different clay workshops and hosted many groups for their team-building events and party workshops at my studio in Amsterdam. So I bring my rich experience with Clay and creativity to every workshop. 

I am looking forward to seeing you in my studio.

Kesem
