Porcelain Casting and Mould Making Workshops with Milly Dent
Get your hands dirty with some porcelain casting.
Overview
Ceramicist Milly Dent is inviting you to get your hands dirty. In April, she'll be hosting workshops in porcelain casting and mould making, giving you the chance to create your own pieces, then glaze them with stunning colours.
There'll be two workshop series, each taking place over three sessions. The first session will involve a mould making demo and an introduction to slip casting, followed by an opportunity to make your own mould. At the second, you'll experiment with an array of porcelain – both white and coloured – as well as a bunch of underglazes and glazes. Finally, when the third session rolls around, it'll be time to cast a third creation and put the finishing touches on your previous works.
The first series will be held on April 10, 17 and 24; and the second on April 11, 18 and 25. All sessions will run from 6.30–8.30pm.
Milly Dent has exhibited at numerous of Sydney's galleries, including Saint Cloche, the Australian Design Centre, Kerrie Lowe and Damien Minton.
