IFINE 5445 Core Clay

An intensive study of ceramic form and process. Through structured exercises and individual exploration, students will build a repertoire of core technical skills which can be applied to both ceramic sculpture and clay vessels. Students are encouraged to stretch the limits of their material formally, functionally, and expressively. Demonstrations cover wheel throwing and hand building, surface treatment, glaze mixing and application, as well as kiln loading and firing methods.
