Incorporating Travel into Pottery Style
00:00:39
Speaker
What is up, Shaping Nation? This is Nick Torres here. And on this episode of Shaping Your Pottery, I'm going to be talking about creating a real world experience and adding experiences from your travels into your pottery.
00:00:54
Speaker
You see I have interviewed a lot of different potters who have been all over the world with this either just for traveling or just studying pottery and art further. And you see every single time that I hear their stories they always kind of take something back from their travels and they kind of incorporate it into their own style of pottery. Now that is my question here for you.
00:01:20
Speaker
How can you take the experiences from where you have traveled from the real world and incorporate it into your pottery? Or if you haven't traveled yet, why not try to go out and travel? Go out and travel. Go make a real world experience so that you are
00:01:39
Speaker
getting more inspiration from outside of your comfort zone and outside of different areas that you might not think of inspiration from. You see, I think if we go to places and we go learn about different cultures, different ways of how people make their architecture or their pottery or their art, then if we do that, then it can show up into our pottery in different ways. You don't have to copy them exactly or model them exactly for whatever
Exploring Cultures for Pottery Inspiration
00:02:08
Speaker
you learn.
00:02:08
Speaker
you could take like the way how they move their lines and how they connect everything together and if you do it that way then you're gonna your pottery is gonna go a lot further and who knows your voice may either evolve or you will find it a lot more naturally because you're taking inspiration from things from your own personal experience from your own travels and you incorporate it into your pottery.
00:02:34
Speaker
And I'll ask you this question again, how can you go out and make a real world experience? An easy way to start doing this is simply going out into different towns maybe that you don't typically go to and try to learn about their history. Go to like some art museums, go to some
00:02:57
Speaker
some other like maybe natural like sites that they have a history sites that are just there try to go in there and see what you can learn and like what inspires you and once you find something that inspires you write it down this is important if you don't write it down or if you don't like take a picture and document it and you're gonna kind of forget it so when you're making these real world experiences you want to
00:03:20
Speaker
go out of your comfort zone. Ideally, you would go outside of your own country wherever you're in. If you're in the United States, go outside of that country and go look at some other cultures so that you can gain more experience with your pottery and add that into your own pottery and so that you are
00:03:45
Speaker
making ways to either make your pottery look better or you're literally just going there to have fun but you see something and you want to put that into your pottery. How can you go out there and add real world experiences and add it to your pottery?
