Nerikomi or "neriage" is a decorative technique established in Japan that involves stacking and packing color-dyed clays together. Once the clay block is stacked, it is sliced through the cross section to reveal a vibrant pattern. This combination of thoughtful planning and accidental surprise makes Nerikomi a delightful technique for hand builders. By the end of class, students will create a set of four small plates. Projects will be kiln fired off-site and returned to Meijer Gardens for pickup.
