What to expect
On these immersive, hands-on days on the land together, two of the prehistoric figurines will be with us. We’ll journey inwards, with a drumbeat, to explore and connect with what the feminine principle may mean to each of us.
This inner journeying is also an opportunity to connect more deeply with whatever phase of womanhood you find yourself in.
Working with clay dug from Mother Earth, you’ll make it into a form that expresses your experience of the (timeless) feminine. I will offer any technical assistance needed to support you in the making.
On the second day we’ll give our clay forms to the fire, in the same way our distant ancestors would have done. A fire which will transmute them into ceramic.
It can be very meaningful to make pottery in a circle of women. Perhaps because of our innate connection to the earth, perhaps because we have a sense of the intense transformation that the body of the clay goes through in the fire.
Making with the clay in this way we tap into a lineage of ancestors: intimate with earth and fire, immersed in nature with the trees and birds around us.
There will be support for you to integrate what you create. And we’ll look at how you can continue the connection with what you’ve made, to have a living relationship with it that’s meaningful to you.
My intention is for this to be a grounded, supportive and heartful time. No previous experience of pottery is needed, just an open mind and the desire to reflect and connect.
