A chance to visit Lake Baikal usually only comes once in a life time and I thought that I had rather carelessly missed mine a many years ago. So the symposium was double special for me and I must thank the organisers not just for the opportunity to visit Baikal but for inviting me to such a well-run and enjoyable symposium. As a sculptor, not a ceramicist, I worked quietly and a little in awe of the serious industry, expertise and firing technology which seemed to take place 24 hours a day. At the opening of the exhibition in Irkutsk there was little doubt just how instructive, invigorating and creative Baikal-ceramistica had been for all the company. However, for the individual artist, I believe the real value and impact can only be seen much later in their studios.
