The ceramic studio, rightfully named- Gaara, meaning earth or soil, is situated at the southwest corner of the farm of the project filled with natural light, vast views of the Himalayan mountains and endless possibilities. The ceramics studio includes four kick wheels, a gas kiln and a wood kiln (We use stoneware and are currently exploring the possibilities of native or local clays)
Programs at the Gaara Studio
If you are curious about clay and want to indulge yourself in some mud therapy, enquire about our several ongoing weekend workshops or write to us to book a private class.
These classes are aimed at beginners with little or no prior knowledge about clay. The participants will learn the basics of handbuilt and wheel thrown pottery using stoneware clay.
The focus of the two weeks would be on developing an understanding of the materials and processes involved in enabling a creative practice and thinking.
The classes are aimed at intermediate or beginners looking to learn or hone their skills at hand-building, throwing, glazing and firing techniques. Taking on a comprehensive approach, the program is focused on ideation and development of individual projects along with a deeper understanding of materials and concepts.
The program is on offer for artists, who are interested in completing an ongoing project or starting a new one. The doors of the Gaara Studio are always open to ceramic and other artists looking to practice and cultivate work in a peaceful and green space, do write into us with your requests to book studio time.
