Clay Modelling Workshop — Dialoguing with Matter

Here, it’s not a class, it’s an experience. 

A pause to breathe, feel, dare.

I welcome you into my Artist studio in Ericeira, where all materials are provided.

You take a block of clay, a bowl of water, simple tools… and then you knead, roll, press, assemble.
No aesthetic expectations, no model — each gesture becomes a discovery.


Why clay modelling

Clay responds immediately to the hand. It keeps the imprint of every gesture — pressure, hesitation, impulse.
It’s a living material, an invitation to slow down, feel, and reconnect with both your body and your imagination.


What it brings

  • Deep relaxation through direct contact with matter
  • A way to express emotions without words
  • A better sense of self through tactile sensations
  • A playful space to rediscover the joy of experimenting like a child
  • A personal trace to take home, even simple, even unfinished

Goal of the session : not to “make an artwork”, but to live a tactile, new experience with clay — and leave lighter.

Certified in professional art therapy, I accompany you without diagnosis or forced interpretation, with simple and caring listening.


My role : Open the Way and hold the space.


Welcome, short guidance, exploration at your rhythm, non-judgement, integrity of the works respected, optional sharing.


Yours : Explore and Feel

You come to live a moment of creative freedom, at your own rhythm, in a space of welcome and non-judgment.


There’s nothing to achieve — only to experience and feel.
