A story of clay
A workshop in Deruta.
Clay, tools and hands.
The workshop
The workshop
of Fausto Chiodi.
In Deruta, Umbria, Fausto Chiodi’s workshop shapes ceramic blanks and terracotta forms.
Plates, bowls and vases on the shelves. Faces and details modelled by hand at the bench.
A vocabulary of forms
The same clay.
Different expressions.
Plates and bowls, pierced forms and modelled figures.
Stacked plates
Pots and saucers viewed from above
A figure with a simple face
Our craft
Care is revealed
in the gesture.
A sponge follows the edge of a plate. The hand works along its profile, one section at a time.
Photographs and videos follow the ceramic process, from shaping to finishing and modelling.
A moment in the workshop
Clay,
in motion.
From forming to a bowl: a brief sequence of machine work and handwork.
