Pottery students show work

cartell 2021 expo ceramicaThe Formentera Department of Culture reports that on Monday 22 February, participants in Silvini Jobani’s pottery course will pull back the curtain on an exhibition of their work. Ten students in all will display their personal creations in the “Ajuntament Vell” gallery until Saturday 27 February.

With pieces in the display grouped by form rather than by creator, visitors to this year’s show will be able to appreciate the range of techniques that came into play as students worked.

Tribute to Remedios Castillo
Jobani and her students have prepared a tribute to local potter Remedios Castillo, who died on 27 January, with an evolving selection of images programmed for evening projections.

One of pottery’s leading proponents on the island, Castillo had a dedication that stoked a passion for the craft in many Formentera natives. Later, Silvia Jobani, Castillo’s one-time student, would run the workshop alongside her former teacher for many years.

The exhibition is on view Monday to Saturday from 11.00am to 2.00pm and 6.00pm to 8.00pm and closed Sundays and Monday mornings.
