Dear ClayArt members,

Hereby I attached references for paper clay and paper-composite porcelain. Hope it is usable for you to working with paper clay.

Kim you have a huge reference list for porcelain. Do you specialize in porcelain and if so, please tell me more. I started a series of articles on porcelain and as you know that is asking for very specific statements.
Best wishes.

Hi Kim,

I also am interested in porcelain paperclay. I throw with porcelain and have
made paper in a workshop and since the last batch of my porcelain had
cracking problems I thought perhaps combining the two might make that clay usable
and start my exploration of the paperclay phenom.I use stamps and sprigs, I
make up myself, incorporated in my handbuilt work.

I have Rose's book but have not started this but did some work with paper
and nylon fiber a long long time ago but dropped the direction as I didn't
know a way to adhere it to itself then and was not into clay discs, which
what I was trying.

My thought was to dry out the porcelain and mix the paper pulp into it.I am
not certain but thought 10% paper pulp .also dried out [Have a bag in my
freezer,now] and I also wonder if the nylon fibers would add or detract from it
as they were kinda fuzzy when I cut them up long ago when using they clay
with them mixed into it?

Is a copy of your thesis online and do you have a website[I don't myself}.\

Meg

Dear Antoinette,

I have been to your home page. You are doing such interesting work connection between Africa and USA. I learnt about African ceramics through a friend from Africa who unfortunately abandoned work with ceramics since he became an executive in NY.

Perhaps, as mentioned by many earlier famous porcelain experts, it is because porcelain is one of the most difficult one among various clay bodies. It is same in Europe and Asia; most of ceramicists are working with porcelain for functional ware, however publics also ceramicists in Far-East (China, Japan and Korea) have more and broaden knowledge and understanding of porcelain than Europeans do. I started working with porcelain 30 years ago. I was very disappointed that lack of understanding and knowledge what publics have here when I moved in Europe for 17 years ago though contemporary porcelain material research was basically launched in Europe. I used to teach porcelain and clay materials in university where often I see students are struggling problems with materials include porcelain.

Why don’t you try to make some experimental works combine porcelain and paper porcelain? You can use a problem part with paper porcelain and the other part as usual with porcelain. It works very well if you use a same porcelain mother body. It may a good start until you become familiar with paper porcelain.

At moment, I have only one work in website since I deleted my personal research home page for update. Anyway this is one of my works. http://www.hdk.gu.se/forskning/kim/pressbild.html

Here comes an info website http://goart.gu.se/kf_publ/kf_publ.htm about the contents of book, price and how to order both in Swedish and English. Unfortunately I do not have any more examples. Please order to this email address: goart@hsm.gu.se. The price of one book is SEK 275 (about 40 USD) for Non-EU countries: excl. VAT, incl. postage and packing. If you do not get a proper reply from the email address, then please send order e-mail to johan.oberg@konst.gu.se. They have my books but I do not have any extra.

You are always welcome and we can keep contact.

Best wishes,
Kim


Antoinette Badenhorst wrote: Thank you. I am originally from South Africa. My work is much more influenced by a mix between European and African Ceramic. I find a huge lack of knowledge, appreciation and understanding for porcelain here in the USA by both artists and public. In most instances potters will either do some porcelain work or do strictly functional work, so it is difficult to get answers to many questions. For that reason I am working on some articles to help raise awareness for handmade porcelain.

I want to use designs that I used to do by pit firing porcelain in ^10 electric firing. My work is often somewhat sculptural in design and my biggest challenge is to find ways to support the pieces when I push the limits. It would be nice if I can talk to you from time to time about issues, particularly since I am in the exploration phase of paper porcelain I am curious to see examples of your work/research? I’ve been invited to show my translucent porcelain in the St. Joseph Gallerie, I think it is Belgium or Holland. I did not take the offer yet, but I am exploring opportunities in Europe.

Thank you for your kind feedback and best wishes with your work.

Dear Dave,

No problem. People used think I am a male especially if they know I am working in an academic research area.

In case of high temperature firing, the absorption rate of fired paper clay is not so high than you guess. From the results of my research, high temperature fired paper porcelain bodies are good enough to suitable for tableware not only studio practice but also according to the international standard (ASTM) for tableware industry. I described much of results from physical properties experiments in fired state in various firing temperatures in my PhD thesis also my articles published in Journal of the European Ceramic Society.

I am not only educated, professionally trained and practicing as a ceramic artist and designer, teaching and research at university, but also I am a highly trained, licensed and qualified science researcher in ceramic/composite materials. I carry a complete process myself: all types of laboratory experiments include SEM, XRD, and other qualitative and quantitative analyses, also making clay bodies from raw materials, sampling, design and producing ceramic art and design works.

I made characterisations of specimens using SEM and ESEM in various ways however only a part of them (but still enough amounts) are in my book since I wanted ordinary ceramic artists and studio potters could read easily to understand and to apply in their practice not only for scientists or researchers. Without practical usability, research within Art and Design fields gain less value.

I am very happy to hear that you are familiar with those people. I have not met them physically but they are such good researchers contributed many wonderful works in this area. I did not know Carty is working as professor at Alfred.

Interesting to get know you an Msc working with studio pottery.

Best regards,
Kim


Dave Finkelnburg wrote: Hi Kim,
I just found your picture on the internet. I
apologize for addressing you improperly. :-( Thank
you for pointing out my error.
I make functional stoneware and porcelain
pots...everything from small bowls to bird baths on
tall pedestals...mostly glazed with a combination of
wood-ash and high-calcium glazes. Because of the
functional aspect of my work I have not tried paper
clay except as an experiment. I have never studied
what it takes to make porcelain resistant to
freeze-thaw damage, but have simply assumed that with
very low absorption the porcelain could not absorb
enough water to be damaged. My observation has been
fired paper clay has a very high absorption of water.
I am curious about how you characterized your
paper clay samples studied in your thesis. Was your
SEM examination of fracture surfaces or polished
specimens or???
I am familiar with a few of the references you
posted, such as Iqbal and Lee's. Carty was my major
professor at Alfred when I earned my MS this year in
Ceramic Engineering.
All the best,
Dave

Dear Meg,

Nice to hear from a person interest in paper porcelain.

The best way mix porcelain and paper is; mix powdered (dried) raw clay materials (e. g. kaolin, feldspar and quartz) and normal dry paper (whatever type paper you have a lot in your studio or home those are perhaps irritating advertising leaflets), not start from dry out a readymade type porcelain plastic clay body or readymade paper pulp which you buy from a retailer.

Unfortunately, online copy of my PhD thesis is not available. These are the links so far I have now which you may look.
