Compositions in Clay

3 units

In this course, students will broaden their understanding of clay as a viable medium of visual expression and three-dimensional exploration. Students will learn basic hand-building techniques to create sculptural constructions, discover the practical applications of wheel throwing through form and function, and explore ceramic tools and equipment to create installation projects. Each student's skill level will be considered, and projects will be adjusted accordingly. Emphasis will be placed on critical assessment and articulation of material.
