Master sculptor Andrian Melka will be working live in the Cenacolo room, demonstrating how to model a portrait using water-based ceramic clay. Andrian will create a wire armature for the piece, building up the shape and then working quickly in wet clay. As the portrait progresses, you will begin to see the details emerge and (hopefully!) recognise the subject.
