In this exciting hands-on workshop you'll learn the techniques and secrets of throwing functional art pieces from an expert in the craft! Fong Choo is a Singapore-born, American-educated studio potter residing in Louisville, Kentucky USA. "My diminutive teapots are my core signature pieces; though, of late, I’ve dedicated myself to rounds of new exploration. Vessels of interest are teacups, mugs, and ‘eccentrically beautiful’ bowls. In concert, I’ve embarked on extensive glaze testing to develop mixtures capable of capturing the dynamic flows that occur within the kiln. My elusive goal is to capture time! My pots are both static and dynamic, in short: “Dwippy!” I want my audience to acquire and use these new explorations and to embrace their senses. My quest to revisit my utilitarian beginnings has allowed me to circle back into the practice, craft, and imagination of studio clay. I’m also a teacher having taught at both university level and in workshops throughout the world. My work has received numerous awards at The Smithsonian Craft Show, The Philadelphia Museum of Art and Craft Show and at The American Craft Exposition." Snacks and drinks are included. Don’t miss this fun and informative hands-on workshop.
