Class Description

Description

Ms. Polyakova is a highly regarded professional in the field of ceramics and the founder of a successful ceramics school in Russia. Her unique approach to teaching wheel-throwing techniques has gained international recognition, and her work is known for its technical precision and expressive form. She regularly conducts workshops and masterclasses throughout Europe and Asia. This will be Ms. Polyakova’s first series of workshops in the United States.

For all those who cannot come to Russia to train with Kseniya, she has developed a programme of short weekend pottery workshops. This is the ideal format to get to know her technique, learn an effective method of working with clay using her quick learning system and start working with large and composite shapes.

No matter if you are a beginner or an experienced master, everyone will find something new and useful for themselves here. Kseniya will work with you, step by step, mastering both basic and advanced pottery techniques. You will get not only new knowledge and skills, but also unforgettable impressions, new acquaintances and inspiration for future creative projects.

NOTE: Only registered participants will be allowed in the studio to attend the workshop. Assistants/collaborators must register as well in order to attend.
