Art workshop for adults and seniors / integration and intergenerational programme: Ceramic Art

The visual and acoustic works from the collections of the GHMP will be the source of inspiration for the series of interactive art workshops. The artistic work of the workshop participants will reflect their auditory and visual perception of the works of art which will be translated into a haptic statement. The theme of the educational programme, focusing on working with clay, will be the creation of ceramic works of art as a combination of natural and artistic order.

To create a ceramic product you need to participate in two consecutive workshops.  The workshop entitled Ceramic Art will be focused on freehand clay modelling. The creative work with clay will be followed by a workshop called Decorating Ceramics. The fired ceramic clay products will be subsequently treated with paint. During the artistic process, we will focus on different ways of decorating (oxide painting, various glaze painting techniques and engobe painting). During the process of creating ceramic works of art, we will learn about different phases such as modelling, drying and firing.

 

This programme is designed not only for adults and seniors, but also for their children and grandchildren as part of an intergenerational encounter. The workshops are also open to foreign visitors.
