Melbourne Design Week Ephemeral Ebb Kirinuku Vessels Workshop

Kayleigh is an artist, educator and art therapist living and working on Wurundjeri Country. Kayleigh has been a practicing artist for 15 years and teaching ceramics to adults and children for 5 years.

In this workshop, we explore carving and slicing as a way of coming to form.

Attention is placed on what can be taken away to reveal shape and surface. Through observation, editing, and moments of risk, the vessel emerges through subtraction.

Traces of confidence and hesitation remain in grooves, ridges, and incisions, forming a striking, cliff-like terrain.
