Mastering wheel throwing
As required 5 students70 euros per monthDameon Lynn began by learning the craft and art of ceramics from a book. He bought a cheap second-hand kiln and some clay, and off he went. He started out making “very ugly oil burners” to give friends and family as gifts. Then, to learn more, he started studying ceramics full time at Cardiff University under the tuition of masters Peter Starkey and Geoffrey Swindell. That is why, after years of training and studies, Dameon knows that providing centrifugal force to a mass of clay placed in the centre of a wheel is a true art that requires valuable training both in and out of the classroom. Alongside creating ceramic pieces that fall somewhere between fine art and more functional tableware, the ceramicist organises weekly classes in which he teaches his theoretical and practical skills in wheel throwing. Students do not need any additional knowledge or previous experience. Dameon guarantees small groups and personalised attention to be able to pay the maximum consideration to the needs of each participant.
