Advanced Projects in Ceramic Sculpture

4 credits · Undergraduate

This advanced course encourages students to stretch the technical limits of ceramic materials and processes. Project assignments will challenge students to develop strong conceptual and material practices, linking their work to larger issues in contemporary art. Topics may include: the intimately handmade, multiples and mass production, conceptual craft, public art, community engagement, interdisciplinary practices, performance, ceramic 3-D printing/modeling, and more. Hands-on demonstrations, field trips, artist lectures, and readings/discussion will accompany dedicated studio time and instruction. Prior experience in clay is expected.
