Institution:

Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

Subject:

Art

Description:

This course provides further instruction in building sculptural forms using clay, and focuses on hand building techniques. Students will develop contemporary and relevant ceramic sculpture by engaging in individualized inquiry and investigating historical and current examples. Additive modeling, reductive carving, pinching and pulling, building from bits, slab construction, and basic mold making will be taught. Beyond object making, students will also consider incorporating time-based media, installations, interventions, and socially engaged projects. Technical experimentation with raw materials and practical experience with kilns and firing will round out the experience. Students will produce three major sculptural projects, along with written artist statements and a digital portfolio of professional quality images.
