Rakupaku V, international workshop
Organisers Üla Koppel, Ingrid Allik

This time, use of materials of the workshop has been reduced to elementary parts, and the entire structure is more abstract. Of textile materials we will use thread, string, yarn and other more basic forms of material, as for clay – raw and fired bricks, and forms made with raku firing. In raku firing technique, this time we try terra sigillata – which means “screened land” in translation and is related to surface finish of ceramics.
Also, the meaning of wooden block has changed – as a block, we use clay brick as basic element of construction. Part of the result of the workshop has the form of performance, where firing has a separate special role in the creation process, related to the construction of raku firing furnace as well as molding of a fire sculpture from raw clay.
