Creative pottery
Jesús
Herrera. He is the grandson and son of potters, who taught him this profession,
with a family tradition of over 200 years in the handmade production of
artistic pottery and building materials. Jesús Herrera graduated in Applied
Arts, specialty in Artistic Pottery, and he teaches Pottery in Occupational
Workshops in the Nuestra Sra. De la Esperanza Educational School in Guadix.
In his
free time, he enjoys moulding traditional ceramic pieces with the clay of the
Guadix hills, giving them a personal touch. Starting a new task, seeing the
result, relaxing, forgetting the daily life, experimenting with techniques
never used before, innovating and transforming traditional aspects into a
colour eruption are his greatest hobbies.
Creative pottery is a sample
of ceramic pieces inspired by the Nasrid pottery tradition as well as Guadix
traditional pottery, with a personal touch. Many pieces are exhibited here such
us: several samples of Glasses of the Alhambra (Granada), Murals inspired by
the Alhambra plastering, several samples of traditional Guadix Pitchers
decorated with pictures of the Monumental City of Guadix and Caves and Plates
in dry rope with landscape and flower decoration, among others.
