We will take wheel thrown pots and encourage them to become new forms through the use of darting, cutting, and stretching. Let's spend some time exploring asymmetrical pots. We will also look at the types of handles, spouts and lids that these new forms call for. Any and all conversations are welcome whether they be about making a living as a potter, or the more esoteric aspects of being a maker. We will spend a week exploring our creativity and reaching for new personal forms. To see Carol-Ann's work please visit her website and blog at www.carolannmichaelson.ca and www.carolannmichaelson.com My primary pursuit revolves around functional forms, pieces that are lovely to look at, to hold and to use. I believe that it is through the handling and using of pottery that its true beauty is revealed. I design pots with people and their daily rituals in mind. Another important part of my life involves teaching workshops, both in my studio and across the country. I love the teaching, the chance to interact with other potters and the opportunity to learn through my travels I have received many scholarships and awards for my work and I am honoured to be included in private and public collections and museums around the world. I am sure the boundless possibilities of clay will hold me in its magic for the rest of my life.
