For meetings worth remembering…

Jo Pearl is a pioneer of Clay Scribing: a fresh take on the graphic scribing/cartooning that businesses are increasingly using to capture ideas during important meetings.  She attends the meeting (in person or online) conjuring a sculpted response, in the moment, to the ideas being discussed. The 3D installation that results captures both the spirit, process and outcome in a unique way that is truly memorable.  

Meeting participants gather to look at the final installation and reflect on what has happed and been shared. It’s an unusual and inspiring way to sum up and develop learnings from a creative conversation.

Time-lapse photography and video record how the installation has evolved. Not intended for kiln-firing, the work is made quickly as an improvised sculpted sketch. Nevertheless elements can sometimes be cheese-wired off the installation and fired to create a ceramic reminder.

Jo trained in ceramics at Central Saint Martins art college, she is co-director of Pearl Group, a corporate inspiration company that engineers high stake meetings to be enlivening and creative.
