    Bonus points if you can count how many food references I make in this video lol
    This one took a bit longer to edit than I expected but it’s finally here-hope you enjoy! Whether you’re coming from episode 1 or just stumbled across this video, welcome. My time in Jingdezhen this summer meant a lot to me and I'm excited to share with anyone who will watch. Working (very slowly) on Chinese subtitles. I would love to hear your feedback and what you'd like to see more of as I work on future episodes!

    I didn’t expect to watch this whole thing. The pottery is fascinating, but I enjoyed the narrative the most-being a new student in a new place, somewhat lonely but finding pockets of belonging here and there. The way it comes to an end and how it’s always bittersweet. It reminded me of the different spaces I’d been in and out of. Thank you for capturing and sharing these things!

      And I didn't expect to read such a thoughtful comment. Looking back I've found myself in these kinds of situations time and time again, but this summer in Jingdezhen, I feel like I really learned how to embrace and enjoy the discomfort of growing. Thank you so much for watching and sharing and I'm so glad the video resonated with you :)

    Another great video :) I'm learning a lot about pottery from this series too! It's cool to see how much work is required during each step. It's also crazy to think of how many hours these Masters have spent on their craft to get to the levels they're at now.

      I know right! I definitely want to learn more about glazing especially but tbh carving makes my head HURT

    Thank you for sharing the names of the techniques. Thanks to that, I can learn more by myself. If you have the opportunity to come to Vietnam, I hope we will have the opportunity to discuss more.

    do you need to know how to speak chinese to attend? i would love to go 🥹 how did your friend who doesn't speak the language manage to learn there?

      @sara2010M @ricapluto Hi! so they don't teach in English, but my friend from France did totally fine learning by watching and occasionally using a translator app. But he was just a normal student who practiced throwing all day. Admittedly it would be a lot harder to do the more fast-paced bootcamp with Masters teaching complex concepts, without knowing Chinese. But I am talking with Master Zhan about the possibility of hosting an English speaking class with a translator present for students like you in the future, if there's enough interest! If that sounds like something you'd like to do feel free toemail me at katherinezhang000@gmail.com :)

    Do they have international students in this program? Can you speak English if someone doesn't know how to speak Chinese?

    • @katherinejzhang
      @katherinejzhang  7 дней назад

      Hi! So they do have international students in the sense that people have traveled from all over the world to take their classes, but they don't teach in English as of now. I am talking with the studio about the possibility of hosting an international class with an English translator, if there's enough interest! If that sounds like something you'd like to be included in, feel free to email me at katherinezhang000@gmail.com
