About the Artist:
Kayla is known for her captivating approach to pottery, employing a blend of methodical techniques and intuitive exploration to create striking, gravity-defying forms. Her work celebrates the unpredictability of clay, emphasizing the rich dialogue between materials and their transformations during the firing process.

On the first day, participants will engage in an in-depth technique demonstration, learning Kayla’s handbuilding process and how to construct dramatically shaped forms using flat, pinched coils.
The day will include a gesture drawing exercise with charcoal & graphite, allowing students to explore movement and structure while reflecting on the physical sensations of the materials.

​The second day focuses on hands-on practice, where participants will work closely with Kayla, receiving technical guidance as they create their objects. This day will also include a dedicated session for insights into their work, helping students explore further nuances in their studio practice.
