ARTT 025. Ceramics ll: Form and Design for the Potter

This class is for students with basic skills on the potter's wheel. Students will learn the language of design and craftsmanship in addition to developing their throwing skills. Critique of class work and objects from the department collection will encourage students to think critically and perceptively about objects. Both handmade and industrially produced objects will be considered.  Frequent demonstrations will provide various approaches to imagining and producing form on the wheel. As a support to studio practice, the history of craft will be introduced through lectures and independent research projects.
