About:  

Tim Grocott of Taus Ceramic creates handcrafted ceramics that are modern in design yet functional and long-lasting. 

His pieces are defined by the process of custom plaster moulds and slipcast porcelain, achieving a considered and precise design style. Aside from his own range of products, Tim offers mould-making workshops for those interested in learning the craft.

The Taus studio is based in rural Waipapa, Te Tai Tokerau Northland.

Suitable for both beginners and those wanting to hone their mould making skills, this practical workshop will cover the whole process of making a two–piece plaster mould. Students will select a decorative glass bottle, and use boxes to form the mould. Tim covers the different aspects of mould making, demonstrates the process of slipcasting using plaster moulds, enabling students to work the skill into their own future practice.

Everything else will be provided.
