JCCAC


I enjoy architectural models and this one is of the Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre (JCCAC) is near the lifts inside the building. The centre is a self-financed registered charity housing over 100 artists/arts organisations. Having been converted from an old factory building and opened in 2008.

I am currently doing a six week course here in a ceramics workshop called i-kiln, where i've been learning/relearning some ceramics techniques, using the workshop facilities such as throwing wheels. I hope to soon be experimenting with chinese slips and glazes. After the intro course the studio can be used on an open access basis. When I will be able to experiment with slab and coil construction.

I've been invited on a possible visit to Jingdejen (historical porcelain capital) with the man who owns the studio which would be amazing, easter holiday dates permitting I will have the chance to visit the kilns and workshops there.
