In this book Michael Hardy looks at the traditional handbuilding methods of pinching, coiling, slab building and press-moulding and explains how to do them. Having previously been eclipsed by throwing as a making method, handbuilding is once more coming to the fore as a preferred technique among ceramic artists. These artists are exploring the possibilities that handbuilding provides, pushing back the boundaries and combining techniques to achieve some of the most exciting ceramics today.
