FIRE THAT FACE
A ceramic therapeutic workshop
The memory of someone’s face is the focus of the uncontrollable everlasting regret, of bitter anger and resentment which sticks in mind and emerges despite any willing.
Through clay you are going to express your feelings and memories in shape of a face, which can be resembling someone of your past (or not).
After firing in a ceramic kiln at 1100°C the burden of a memory will become a solid object of your property.
Holding in the hands the artifact of a memory is a freeing experience. Conquering the past and deciding what to do with it it's what comes next.
