Located at a distance of about 60 kilometres in the south of Toulouse, Martres-Tolosane is a small village that is famous for its earthenware, whose local production hasn’t been interrupted since the 18th century.
In our fast and constantly connected world, the art of modelling invites us to disconnect. While kneading clay, you just focus on the main thing. The simplicity of gesture allows you to release your internal tensions. Shall we start?
As an artistic ceramicist, my creations intend to transmit the emotions I feel while I’m modelling clay according to ancestral knowledge.

In a welcoming artistic place, I will tell you all about clay, its different types and all their specificities. Using white sandstone, the idea is to guide you to create and model a simple piece such as a bowl or a cup. During 2 hours, I will accompany you in your creation process and do a turning demonstration. Duration of the course: 2 hours.
