I was lucky enough to partake in the morning of an online mask making workshop given by Leora Sotto an Israeli artist, art therapist and teacher and organised by NIGAT. Her description of her process was fascinating, with wisdom, insight, and an open, engaging way of presenting that was relaxing and inspiring.
Leora was open to answering questions and I found the mark making and also the joining of parts with other materials really interesting. Her instagram is worth a look if you are interested in clay and masks. The material speaks to her and the mask is created.
We were then invited to make our own out of materials that we had to hand – I had some clay. I have not used the material for a long time and my quite wet air dry clay became easier to handle with use and below is my mask, so far…
