| Description (ECIAD) | In this class, students will engage with the land
as a source of clay materials and through the lens
of foodways-the study of cultural, social, and
economic practices related to food. They will
explore topics inceramics and foodways,
investigating local ceramic resources to develop
materials and concepts for ceramic production.
The course will focus on techniques, ideas, and
the language of form related to creating ceramic
objects intended for or about the table. Various
processes for creating tableware will be
demonstrated, and students will experiment with a
range of techniques and materials to expand their
ceramic skills.
In addition to hands-on projects, students will
conduct individual research outside the studio to
deepen both their production practices and
personal interests. They may explore both
functional and sculptural ceramic forms,
encouraging critical thinking about the table in
practical, theoretical, and creative dimensions. |
