Bol This book is an introduction to the use of additions in clay bodies, from hard materials like stones and glass to combustible matter, fibre, metals and colour. It looks at the work of a range of contemporary international makers who are using additions. Explore the creative possibilities of non-clay additions with this practical guide to expanding the character and performance of clay bodies.Additions to Clay Bodies is an inspiring handbook for makers looking to mix non-clay materials directly into their work. Whether you want to introduce raw textures, experiment with organic and combustible materials, or create lighter, stronger forms, this book shows how different additions can transform a clay body.Throughout, author and ceramicist Kathleen Standen combines practical instruction with examples from contemporary makers, encouraging informed experimentation. Inside, you’ll:· Explore hard materials: Learn to safely integrate grog, sand, stone, glass, and rusting metal for striking visual and tactile effects.· Play with combustion: Discover how paperclay, organic fibers, and combustible matter create unique hollow spaces and intricate fired textures.·Experiment with metals: Embed wire, mesh rods, nails and recycled metal components to support and extend sculptural possibilities.·Make your mark with colours: Go beyond glazes by experimenting with raw oxides, body stains, and slipcasts to colour clay from the inside out.Lavishly illustrated with colour photographs, Additions to Clay Bodies is an inspiring resource for potters, ceramic artists and students seeking to expand their studio practice.
