Make & Throw with Raw / Textured Clay with Deiniol Williams Sat. 13th September

Saturday 13th September 2025

10.30am until 3pm

£120 per person

Deiniol’s ceramic practice explores the dichotomy between rhythm and discord, balance and disorder. Bringing together raw and unrefined materials and incorporating them into the clay, he seeks to find the harmonious point between the rhythmic flow of the potter’s wheel and the disruptive and chaotic inclusions within the modified clay.

In this workshop, Deiniol will lead a demonstration and practical session in modifying and preparing textured clay with aggregates. You will develop your own batch to throw with on the wheel and hand – build within the session.

Basic knowledge of throwing on the wheel is required.

All materials and bisque firing included.
