The Mentorship Programme
The Mentorship Programme is designed for those who have a ceramic practice and have reached a cross roads with their work. Perhaps you have reached a point of not knowing how to move forward, or you may want to produce a body of work for an exhibition and are seeking some guidance. Possibly you have a new idea you want to explore but are uncertain as to how to go about it. The reasons for participating on this programme are numerous, and yet the aim is clear: to arrive at a solution for whatever problems you are encountering in your work, and to take it to the next level. It could also be looked at as an ongoing journey for the serious ceramist wanting to stretch the boundaries of their work and to create their own identity through the medium of ceramics.
The purpose of the programme is to give the participants insight into what it is they want to be making and also assist with the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of it.
Critical assessment of work will play a role in the programme as will investigation into the motivation informing the work produced.
The programme requires a commitment from the participants of at least 6 months. We will meet once a month and it is expected that the participants will carry out whatever work is required of them between meetings.
Please be aware that this is not a practical class, but rather an opportunity for discussion, assessment, feedback and debate.
On registration for The Mentorship Programme you will be required to complete a questionnaire which must be completed and submitted before commencing the programme.
If you wish to apply for this course please be reminded that a commitment of at least 6 months is required. E-mail me and I will send an application questionnaire which I will ask you to complete.
