About event

A field-based ceramics workshop exploring local wild clay, from gathering earth to wood-fired test pieces.

Led by researcher, artisan and educator Alejandro Villacis, this outdoor workshop in Kapedes follows wild clay from the landscape through a connected process of making and firing. No previous ceramics experience is needed.

  • Walk and map the terrain to locate and gather wild clay.
  • Refine the clay and hand-form test pieces.
  • Fire samples in a wood-fired kiln.
  • Open the kiln, compare results and develop a material archive.

The practice explores geology, ecology and time through locally sourced earth materials. Capacity is limited for focused exchange; attending both weekends is recommended.
