Human Hybrids – Slab-Built Human Torso’s with Animal Heads with Jai @Jscreatures
December 6th (SAT) 12:30pm-6:30pm
In this workshop Jai Sallay-Carrington will be demonstrating how to build a human torso with an animal head using the slab-building technique. Participants will focus on body proportions, sculpting either clothing or a naked form, and achieving an expressive position for the body. Jai will guide attendees through shaping and assembling a torso, paying special attention to anatomical details that bring life and character to each piece. The class offers creative freedom in designing either realistic or stylized torsos and Jai will go over the many options for surface treatments available to the participants after the firing. This is the technique Jai uses to build their life-sized figures as well as their small-scale pieces, so they will be going over how to translate this technique to a larger scale.
By the end of the workshop, all participants will have a max. 10” tall animal-headed human torso of bare clay, ready to be dried and bisque fired. A bisque firing is included with this workshop, if the participants wish to do a second firing with glazes, they will have to book a drop in session (with additional fees and glaze / firing fees) or arrange that on their own.
This workshop coincides with Jai's exhibition next door at Fifty fifty Gallery called Trans Passions. Jai will be giving a private tour of the exhibition at 11am on Sat Dec 6th, before the workshop begins.
