CERAM-2000: Ceramics 1

Course Description

Through hands-on assignments, demonstrations and lectures students in this introductory course discover the nature and possibilities of clay as 2D and 3D medium as well as strengthen their individual artistic voice. Beginning with the basics, including handbuilding, coil structures, slab construction and glazing students achieve work that is both technically and conceptually proficient. Field trips, reading discussions and critiques will enable students to develop a broad perspective on ceramics and the ability to analyze artworks.
