This course introduces traditional and contemporary approaches to ceramic form and processes with an emphasis on hand building techniques, and a basic introduction to the potter’s wheel. The course includes basic surface design, glaze, and kiln firing procedures. Emphasis is placed on individual style and how clay can be used as a vehicle for expression. Students create work from both low and high-fire clay bodies using a combination of coil, slab, extruded, wheel thrown and texturing techniques, surface slips, and glazes. An introduction to ideas about sculpture, the vessel, and the kiln firing process are presented. At the conclusion of this course, students will be well versed in hand building techniques, use of the wheel, and firing kilns. Students will also learn to develop strategies to translate an idea into sculptural and functional forms.
Students will purchase their own clay and tools; glazes and equipment are provided. This class runs concurrent with the for-credit academic class. For more information, contact the ART Department Program Chair, Angela Faris Belt
