Nerikomi is a hand-building pattern technique made with colored clay, by mixing colored clay and then press it together. “Neri” means to mix, and “komi” means to press. The clay is layered in different patterns to create a block of clay. After, you slice the block into thin layers. Finally, you make a pattern in a repetitive (or abstract) way from these slices to create different objects. In this workshop students will learn in the first class to create a patterned block of two colors of clay. The second class will be dedicated to cut the slabs and transform them into nice trays, plates or vessels.
