After a very difficult month in the wake of cyclone Marcia wiping out our community and my livelihood, a very bright light has appeared at the end of the tunnel. Yesterday I received the exciting news that unbeknown to me I was nominated & then invited to be one of 14 ceramic artists internationally to attend an international skill building workshop as part of the 2015 Gyeonggi International Ceramics Biennale in Korea. (Last year the event had 400 000 visitors!)
I am honoured and humbled to be offered this opportunity and it's something that I simply cannot pass up. It also presents a massive challenge to me as like so many others the cyclone has eaten up all of my savings and shut down my income with my folks gallery still closed for business. I am left with the challenge of raising funds quickly as I would have to fly out in just 4 weeks!
And so here's my good idea...to make some good pots and sell them cheap to all of you good people...What do you think?
