Material Correspondence: Wild Clay & Territory Workshop in Nicosia

Material Correspondence is a field-based ceramics workshop in Kapedes, Cyprus, unfolding across two weekends in November 2026. Participants gather wild clay directly from the landscape and follow it through earth to fire using simple, hands-on methods. No prior ceramic experience is required.

By walking and mapping the terrain, the workshop treats the territory as a living archive shaped by geology, ecology, and time — making ceramics a situated, place-based practice. Capacity is limited for focused exchange.
