    Masterclass: The Freedom of the One-Off – Joseph Harrington

    with Joseph Harrington

    There is a great freedom in the 'one off'. The practice of a maker need not involve producing multiples of one thing. This course is aimed at embracing a spontaneous approach to the initial modelling process through looking at ways to be creative with materials and taking a more spontaneous view of cold working.
