Nerikomi Workshop

May 24, 2025
Saturday | 10am-1pm
Price - 65€ (Material included)
Trainer - Rita Daniel from FICA Oficina Criativa

Description

Nerikomi is a Japanese technique that allows you to create patterns on ceramic pieces through the specific position of different colored pastes. In this workshop we will color pastes using dyes and oxides and learn how to combine and design different patterns. We will create a small showcase and build a piece using Nerikomi slivers, which will then be fired and glazed.

No previous knowledge necessary.

Syllabus and Practical Exercise

• Mixture of dyes and oxide in the paste, both in an atomized and plastic state
• Construction of Nerikomi patterns, from the more traditional to the more experimental
• Making standardized mini samples for showcases
• Making a simple piece from a standardized ballast

Material included

Firing and glazing - all the pieces produced will be fired, glazed and fired again by us (they will have to be picked up later on a date to be agreed)
