Description
Hi, my name is Chio and I'm in artisan craftwork. I live in a village in the Andalusian province of Cádiz. For my handicrafts, I have a small studio where I work with ceramics and jewelry.
Types of help and learning opportunities
Art Projects
Help with Computers/ Internet
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I offer basic practical teaching on ceramics and jewelry. No previous knowledge is needed but I prefer people with artistic skills (photography, painting, graphic design etc.). Social media, especially instagram, skills are very welcome. The village where I live is very beautiful and typical Andalusian location, it is very close to pretty wild places on the coast and the mountains; besides the good weather during most of the year.
Help
I need someone to help me with the different tasks in the studio: for example, elaboration of ceramic pieces for jewelry (firing pieces at different temperatures) and design and elaboration of silver work. It,s also interesting for me someone with knowledge in graphic design and photography.
Priority to people who can stay at least one month in my workshop, minimum time needed to acquire skills and develop the job. Also, I prefer middle-aged women: 35 years and older. And finally, I prefer that the agreements should not be hasty, but planned in good time: at least a month, so that I can organize myself at home and in the workshop.
Languages spoken
Spanish: Fluent
French: Fluent
English: Beginner
Accommodation
I live in a little house in the centre of the village. The guests would have their own bedroom. We would share kitchen and bathroom.
What else ...
My French is a lot better than my English ;) Maybe the volunteer would be also a good opportunity to have a language exchange - I could improve my English and the volunteer his/her Spanish. I live alone and have no pets. And I love dancing and sharing delicious meals!
