This was the best workshop ever! Students not only learned fundamental hand-building ceramic techniques but also created their own unique ceramic pieces. Each sculpture was deeply conceptual and highly personal, reflecting the individuality of its maker.

Working with Chinese students is always both rewarding and challenging. They are incredibly diligent and dedicated, but what matters most to me is helping them discover their own personal voices. I wanted to encourage them to express themselves freely and create artwork that reflected their personalities, experiences, and ideas. To complete their pieces, the students painted their sculptures with colorful underglazes, adding another layer of creativity and self-expression before the final firing.
