Studio and classroom shortcuts are also taught, providing a pathway to greater creative expression, with plenty of assistance and support while creating your own experimental works.

Graham Hay caught the clay and travel viruses from his grandparents, while growing up on a farm in the NZ High Country. Introduced to paper clay in 1992 by Ceramic Chemist Mike Kusnik at ECU, Graham quickly develop many unique ways of using this medium, receiving invitations to lead 300+ paper clay workshops across 14 countries, including leading the first international paper clay symposiums or conferences (Scotland, Hungary, Norway, USA).

 He has participated in 180 exhibitions across 16 countries, including 7 biennales. His artwork is in public collections in 8 countries, and features in twenty two books. Admitted to the International Academy of Ceramics in 2019, he is based at Farmer Street Studio, North Perth.  Visit www.grahamhay.com.au for information on paper clay and inspiration.
