Learn ancient Peruvian techniques in ceramics from Polo Ramirez by sitting on the floor of the AutoNation Academy of Art + Design and creating a vessel with your hands and feet, just as the Peruvians have done for hundreds of years. “In the traditional way, I work with my hands and feet to create my ceramic pieces. My materials and tools are simple. I use clay and rustic tools such as a round rocks and a wooden paddles. I am a quiet and meditative artist. As I begin work on a piece the shape emerges. I do not start my work with an image in my mind. Instead I allow the clay, the earth, to speak to me. There are many stages to the creation of each piece and attention to detail is my objective.” – Polo Ramirez. Cost: $400 tuition + $50 materials fee + $25 registration fee. For more information and to register, contact education1@moafl.org or call (954) 262-0239.
