Kurinuki: Reductive Making with Clay (Summer Special) with Holly O'Meehan
Learn the art of 'kurinuki' - a Japanese term referring to the handbuilding technique of starting with a solid block of clay and hollowing it out to create an interior void. Make an array of sculptural and functional forms in this exciting brand-new course designed for learners of all levels led by artist Holly O'Meehan.
