General Information
Workshop - Description:
Working with clay means thinking with your hands. It is a primal, meditative, and at the same time powerful way to find artistic expression.
In this workshop, the human figure is in the spotlight. Based on our own perception of the body, we develop modeled sketches that will be transformed into individual sculptural works. We explore proportion, movement, and expression, learn basic construction and modeling techniques, and shape surfaces in a variety of ways. A series, an enlarged figure, or an object can emerge.
The course offers space for experimentation, intuition, and personal interpretation. Own project ideas can also be brought along and elaborated on and implemented here.
Here are photos from the Ateliersklasse 2025.

- Modeling tools, knives
- Spray bottle,
- Rim wheel
- Brushes, work board

Material contribution:
A material contribution of 20 euros is required for 10 kilos of clay and colored engobes.
The Artist:
Barbara Schmid studied at the University of Artistic and Industrial Design Linz, Department of Plastics Conceptions/Ceramics, and has been working in the art studios of the city of Graz in the former Taggerwerk since 2015.
In her work, she often focuses on the material clay in its diverse forms of appearance and states, using it to explore themes between society and art.
