Description

Sustainable Ceramics: A Practical Approach by Robert Harrison offers a comprehensive guide to creating environmentally friendly and socially responsible ceramic art. With over four decades of experience, Harrison presents a range of practical possibilities for reclaiming, reusing, and recycling materials in the studio or workshop. The book explores various factors to consider when adopting sustainable practices, including alternative firing technologies, energy-saving methods, and ways to collect and use clay sustainably. It also delves into simple and achievable methods to reduce the carbon footprint of ceramic art, drawing on interviews and examples from practitioners who have successfully implemented these strategies in their own work. By exploring these practical approaches, readers can gain a deeper understanding of how to produce beautiful and environmentally friendly ceramics that align with their values.
