Exhibition with the results of the 11th Suferser Feuer Woche & vernissage

Everyone is invited to join Eric & Christine during this 10-day workshop (June 7 - 15). The workshop participants are international BA and MA jewelry students from Pforzheim University, DE.

On Saturday, June 7, it starts with loading the wood kiln. On Sunday we will fire for 18 hours with wood only, up to 1300°C and on Thursday the kiln will be opened. From Monday we work with two other firing techniques. In Ashanti lost wax casting, wax models are embedded in a mass of fireclay, clay and horse manure. The casting process then takes place in glowing coal. At the same time, ceramic pieces are prepared for raku firing. In this process, glazed ceramics are heated to approx. 1000°C in homemade kilns and then placed directly in sawdust. The carbon that is immediately produced penetrates the ceramic and creates a crackle effect in the glaze. The culmination of the whole process is the exhibition of all the results in the Sufers community center, with a vernissage.
