In the past, slipcasting was primarily considered an industrial method. Today, however, ceramic artists are adapting its techniques to create a wide range of beautiful and highly individualized pieces.

In Slipcasting, Sasha Wardell clearly explains and demonstrates the techniques involved and shows how they can be adapted for the studio workshop. Examples of the work of an international group of artists are used to illustrate the range and versatility of that technique.

The images in the second edition have been updated to color, along with a revised chapter on individual approaches by a new group of well-known contemporary artists.

Part of the Ceramics Handbook series: conceived as an introduction to various topics and techniques relating to the use of clay. Aimed at the student or the practiced ceramicist experimenting in a new area.
