DescriptionSurface and form are a fundamental concept in ceramics. This class delves into the dynamic relationship of surface through 2D and 3D forms across material, technical, formal, and conceptual areas. Through an extensive introduction of surface treatments, students gain insights into how surface manipulation can shape aesthetic outcomes and conceptual narratives. Several processes will be taught and examined to enrich comprehension of surface techniques. Projects encourage experimentation and self-directed studio work, fostering personal investigations. Studio sessions, demonstrations, research assignments, presentations, discussions, and critiques form integral components of this course.
