Making a teapot with Martina Dielen

 

Date: Sunday, November 2 , 10:30-11:30

Venue: Miaoli Craft Park — Performance Stage

My designs have always been influenced by the simplicity of the Far East countries. My technique is worked out behind a potter wheel. I try to combine them with loose handles.

I usually put an idea for a teapot on paper first and choose a clay which fits the glazes or firings I want to use. I am interested in designing something new and play around with the materials so I can make an unica teapot for someone to enjoy which is also nice to look at because of its form.

I hope that I provide the audience some new skills which they can adapt in their new creations.
