Day 4 at the Harmattan Workshop, Delta state, and I’ve been sitting with memories from my time here last year and even 6 years ago, thinking about how much this place has shaped me.
Last year was when I leaned into pottery and ceramics. Clay is honest to a fault, it doesn’t hide your hesitation or impatience. One wrong move, too much pressure, not enough attention, and it collapses, cracks, warps or blasts. It’s humbling in that way. You’re forced to slow down, to listen and accept that control is only an illusion.
This workshop has been a training for my hands and mind. And being around people with wildly different talents and approaches has stretched me in ways I didn’t expect. It also reminds me that there isn’t one way to make only honest ways.
We made so many mistakes last year. Some pieces broke in the kiln, some survived. At the time it felt very frustrating but now I see those moments as part of the education & cost of learning a skill that refuses shortcuts.
I’m back this year to build on that foundation with more patience, curiosity, and a deeper respect for the process. I can’t wait to see what emerges from this round.
I made amazing pieces in 2025 that I’m yet to put out.
I’ll be sharing updates from this journey this time. I hoarded so much last year.
