Crosshatched Projects 2011: a workshop, a collaborative work and an exhibition
Part 1: The Workshop at Tallarook by Sandra Bowkett, potter and coordinator of Crosshatched Projects

bowkett_th.jpgIn early 2011, Ann Ferguson and Rajasthani potters, Manohar Lal and Dharmveer, came to stay on my property in central Victoria. I valued the opportunity to work beside them observing, in particular, Manohar Lal’s depth of knowledge gained from a heritage of generations and his lifetime of working with clay. The experience has made me aware of where the parameters of my ceramic practice lie. From the making to the firing, the journey through fundamentals of the ceramic process has been refreshing.
