Clay bodies

An ongoing ceramic research into clay bodies, characterized by a high amount of locally sourced iron mineral.

Iron can be used as a pigment to create inspiring colors, textures, surfaces and clay bodies. Besides its beautiful color, the residue is also characterized for it to sinter. This brings along several benefits relating to the possibility of lowering the heating temperature of the ceramic products.

This ongoing research has been made possible by the following projects:

Oer tile Eindhoven, together with Kirstie van Noort.

Building blocks for the future, artist in residence at Koninklijke Tichelaar in Makkum, together with Kirstie van Noort.
