Advanced Pottery Masterclasses & Ceramic Workshops in Mumbai
Go beyond the basics. Join our intensive masterclasses on glaze chemistry, clay bodies, and firing techniques at our Byculla studio.
A moment from our masterclass on clay bodies and glazes. Here, I am discussing techniques with participants in the middle of our working studio, surrounded by the tools and materials of the craft.
In our masterclasses, theory and practice go hand in hand. I believe in showing, not just telling, as I explain the properties of different glaze materials to a student.
The results of experimentation. These are glaze test tiles from our 'Ceramic Clay Bodies and Glazes' masterclass, fired in the kiln. Each tile teaches us something new about how different chemical compositions react to heat.
This video captures the energy during Kazuya Ishida's visit. You can see him demonstrating his dynamic throwing technique, creating a complex form on the wheel as our community watches and learns.
Art is a conversation between different mediums. It was a pleasure to have the esteemed artist Prabhakar Kolte sir in the studio, exploring ceramic glazes and sharing his perspective on color and form with us.
About Advanced Masterclasses & Collaborations
We don't just focus on the mechanics of throwing here. Our advanced sessions dive deep into the chemistry of ceramics, where you spend time with test tiles, firing logs, and kiln theory. Understanding why a glaze breaks or how a specific clay body reacts at high temperatures is exactly what separates a casual hobbyist from a dedicated ceramic practitioner.
Pottery is riyaaz, but advanced pottery requires knowledge. In these masterclasses, we move beyond basic shapes to explore the science of clay bodies and glazes. Whether it is Cone 6 to Cone 10 firing or mastering glaze composition, we treat these sessions as research labs.
We also believe in the power of shared knowledge. That is why we frequently invite artists like Kazuya Ishida or Prabhakar Kolte to the studio. These collaborations are not just demonstrations; they are open conversations about color, form, and the philosophy of making. If you are serious about refining your practice, this is where you can challenge your technique, share findings with peers, and treat your pottery as a lifelong discipline.
