John Kuczwal – Lustre fired ceramics

1. Woodfiring In Late August
We will light up our kiln ‘Embla’ in August. The kiln is a big woodfired cross draught kiln. It is lit up only once a year, so this a unique opportunity.
Guldagergaard offers low price accommodation during the firing. The price for the firing itself varies depending on the space you need in the kiln.
Start up: 23rd August

I’ll be selling a bunch of new lines of work (some scraffito and some stamped hand-built stuff) as well as a few of the old faves like the Southern Ice Porcelain. Please make sure to say hi if you are around!

Time for a change I reckon. Hope you like the looks of things around here. I was in the mood for something a bit brighter and cleaner. Looks like Blogger might have a few hiccups in the new design template and I’ll try to get that sorted asap.
In the meantime check out the amazing new work by Molly Hatch on exhibition at the Clay Studio in Philadelphia. View the show online here.

And check out the blurb about it on Design Sponge here.

Way back in February (see original post here) I posted about an upcoming symposium on the idea of the Prototype (PROTOtype: Craft it the future tense) co-convened by the Victoria and Albert Museum and Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design at the University of Dundee. Well the symposium has just winded down and thanks again to the wonder of the internet those of us that we’re able to make it in person can check out a bit about the events and talks on the CRAFT RESEARCH Blog.
Looks like yet another amazing symposium challenging contemporary notions of craft research and boundaries between different creative industries.
