Poetic Clay — Ceramics Workshop
Clay may seem humble, yet it holds endless possibilities. Inspired by nature and daily life, this workshop guides participants from observation to creation through composition, glazing, carving, and painting, exploring the dialogue between ceramics and painting. Participants will learn the basics of blue-and-white and underglaze decoration, draw inspiration from classical works, landscapes, plants, and light, and gradually complete a piece that combines craftsmanship, lived experience, and personal style.
Led by veteran artist Terence Lee, who has devoted over forty years to ceramics and painting since graduating from the California College of the Arts in 1984, the workshop draws on his extensive teaching and creative experience at institutions including The Chinese University of Hong Kong and HKU SPACE. His works blend craftsmanship with a sense of everyday life, and he guides participants to discover their own rhythm and enjoyment in the creative process.
