This festive season create and make your own version of Ganesha with us. This workshop offers a unique opportunity to engage in the traditional art of crafting Ganesha idols from eco-friendly clay, emphasizing sustainability and reverence for nature.
Participants will be guided through the intricate process of moulding and shaping the clay into the iconic figure of Lord Ganesha. Beyond artistic expression, these workshops also promote eco-consciousness, as the idols are created using natural materials that can be immersed in water during the immersion ceremony without causing harm to the environment.
What To Expect:
It’s a 1.5-hour workshop, where participants will be making Ganesha Idol using hand-building techniques and can take home their unique creations.
A little about me, I am a skilled and passionate studio potter with 4+ years of experience in creating exquisite pottery pieces. Having worked for a decade in corporate I decided to take a break and explore more about ceramics and as I delved into this ancient and captivating art form, I unearthed a newfound sense of creativity and fulfilment.
In essence, my journey as a ceramist has been a transformation of my soul, a rediscovery of creativity, and a connection to the timeless beauty of clay. The inherent qualities of this medium – its malleability, unpredictability, and rich history – have shaped not only my art but also my perspective on life, reminding me that beauty can be found in the most unexpected places, including within ourselves.
My work is majorly inspired by plants and nature around me infusing my work with a sense of creativity to produce unique and artistic ceramic pieces, blending traditional techniques with contemporary designs.
