AR 357 - Experimental Ceramic Processes

3 Credit(s)

Experimental Ceramics is a forum for students to explore non-traditional ceramic forming methods in the creation of three-dimensional, sculptural artworks. Through technical demonstrations, image presentations, discussions and themed assignments, this course challenges students to experiment with large scale handbuilding, paperclay slip construction, alternative firing methods, non-ceramic surface treatments, as well as clay and glaze formulation. Additional emphasis is placed on content development by exploring complex forms, developing methods of narrative, and identifying source material for work. This course has a course specific fee to cover the costs of some materials.
