SUMMARY:Clay Throwing
DESCRIPTION:On this 4-week course with tutor Fiona Shannon you will learn the key stages of wheel throwing on the pottery wheel and the basics of ceramics. Fiona will encourage you to produce functional items using stoneware clay (cost includes 2 bags for each participant). After completing a piece they will then go on to be fired in the kiln by the tutor. You can purchase additional clay should you wish to create more work. This course is suitable for beginners\, 18+ and the dates are as follows: January 19\, 26\, February 2 and 9. \nPlease note: short sleeves\, old trousers and an apron are recommended but clay washes off easily; your finished piece will need time to dry out and be fired twice in Flowerfield’s kilns. Your work will be ready for collection 4 weeks after the date of your workshop.

SUMMARY:'Curved with Intent'
DESCRIPTION:Craft NI are delighted to welcome you to ‘Curved with intent’\, an exhibition of contemporary design in wood. ‘Curved with intent’ is Craft NI’s first event of a varied 2022 exhibition programme and promises to raise interest in the beautiful medium of wood and admiration for the talented Northern Irish designer-makers who work with it. \nWood as a construction material and man have had a very long relationship – not surprising since it is so extraordinarily versatile. The ability to create curved forms in wood is an example of its extreme adaptability to different needs and types of objects and construction\, and it perfectly illustrates the theme of the exhibition – gentle and purposeful mastery that transforms a simple organic material into beautiful and/or functional craft objects. \nWood can be shaped in many ways\, and the work displayed in the exhibition will demonstrate both a variety of objects and methods\, including carving\, turning\, laminating\, steam bending and cutting from solid. \nThe participating designer-makers are David Cousley\, Mark Hanvey\, Ronan Lowery\, Brian McKee and John Piekaar. \nEach participating designer-maker speaks through their work to the audience of their own particular relationship with the material: the shapes they produce are more or less practically and/or aesthetically purposed. They are very deliberately envisaged – they are curved with intent. \n  \n  \n
