MEET OUR TEACHERS
Guided by the theme Spark of Innovation, this year’s five teachers invite you to explore new possibilities in polymer clay.
Through contemporary design, experimentation, and thoughtful making, each brings a unique perspective to the event.
Ready to discover where their sparks may lead you?
OLGA CHERNYSHOVA
Deeply inspired by nature, Olga Chernyshova translates organic rhythms and structures into refined compositions, expressed through brooches and necklaces. What makes her work particularly striking is her sensitivity to contrast, often explored through a strictly black and white palette. In recent months, however, her curiosity has led her towards colour, opening a new chapter in her exploration.
EDUARDO FARILLO
Eduardo Farillo has been working with polymer clay since childhood, starting with simple creations and gradually developing his skills without any formal training in the visual arts. In recent years, his work has evolved into detailed floral sculptures and carefully crafted faux ceramic vessels.
HANNAH LIM
With a background in sculpture, painting, and installation art, Hannah Lim explores the intersection of cultures and how these connections shape objects, artworks, and architecture. Influenced by her mixed British and Singaporean heritage, her work is rooted in storytelling, tradition, and cultural exchange. She has exhibited internationally in cities including New York, Tokyo, Milan, Shanghai, and Miami, while also leading to collaborations with brands such as Apple and Bvlgari.
ANDREEA CORPODEAN
With a background in marketing, geography, and tourism, Andreea Corpodean from Romania has always been a creative person, exploring many artistic mediums over the years. Around ten years ago, she discovered polymer clay, a material that deeply resonated with her and drew her into the slow, detailed nature of the process, where patience becomes part of her artwork.
