CASA CARACARA by Taller de Terreno Arquitectura
ABOUT
LOCATED 10 KILOMETERS NORTH UP THE COAST FROM TODOS SANTOS, BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR…hidden among 2.5 acres of Tropical desert terrain…
Taller de Terreno is a destination site for artist residencies, immersive workshops, day-trip classes, and visual art exhibitions.
"We're creating a sanctuary for learning in a cross-disciplinary, think tank context. In a sustainable ranch setting, participants exchange ideas, practice art=making, and work toward assimilating the built environment into the natural one.”
In May of 2019, the first workshop ~ to build TDT’s multi-fuel, high-fire ceramic kiln ~ launched with seven inspired participants and two dedicated maestros, Ralph Scala and Sam Harvey, who saw the project through ~ from the leveling of the kiln’s concrete “biscuit pad”, to a once-fire wood-firing that smoothly sailed to cone 10 (over 2300 Fahrenheit) in 24 hours.
“Our destination workshops add a splash of wellness to the artist palette~”
