Paint, Carve, and Pattern: A Tile Workshop

Over the past two months, we’ve had the joy of hosting a small series of ceramic tile workshops at our studio. What stayed with us most was the personal and unique paths each participant took to arrive at their own set of tiles.

Rather than prescribing a single outcome, the workshops were designed as open frameworks; a guided space to explore mark-making, pattern, memory, and story through clay. Participants were guided through a range of techniques including sgraffito, stencilling, and hand-painting, and each person was invited to use the techniques (or a combination of) to suit their own visual language and vision.

The result was a room full of entirely different works. Four tiles per person, and no two sets alike. Some drew on personal histories, others on culture, abstraction, or play. Beyond the making, the afternoons unfolded through gentle conversation and shared stories, and we’re already looking forward to what comes next.
