UNDERGRADUATE | CERAMICS
INTRODUCTION
In the 3-D areas, students discover the broad scope of form in space.
They explore a variety of means through which ideas and inspiration are
conceptualized in sculpture and ceramics. Contemporary trends and
evaluations of artistic development are woven into class projects.
Assignments challenge creativity as well as provide a basic
understanding of the different tools, materials, and techniques which
are used to communicate through three-dimensional form. Undergraduates
share and interact with graduate students in large studios which are
equipped for welding metals, modeling and firing works in clay, casting
in permanent materials, and constructing in wood.
In
Ceramics, students learn new and traditional techniques in clay and
glaze technology, expanding their knowledge in the use of clay, glaze,
and slips in the building and decorating of pottery and ceramic
sculpture. The use of gas and electric kilns, and other equipment, are
included in the program.
