RAKÚ
This workshop is designed for the alumni of Mixing Soup, who willl create the pieces, with refractory clay paste, in class. This pieces will be burnt at a especific temperature for the Rakú decoration.
The Raku technique consists of burning at low temperature in a kiln from which the incandescent pieces are extracted once the glazes have melted. Then it is transferred to a container filled with organic material to produce a reducing atmosphere, that is, with little oxygen. ; This produces a physical-chemical transformation that translates into the appearance of metallic, pearlescent effects and surprising color changes on the surfaces.
