Ceramics/3D - Minor
The Minor in Ceramics/3D allows students to focus on working 3-dimensionally and sculpture/installation as a medium, discipline, process and vehicle to evolve conceptual thinking with creative practices. It will provide students the opportunity to explore the technical, formal, historical and theoretical approaches to working 3D through a combination of studio courses. Explorations in traditional mediums such as wood, clay and plaster will be utilized as well as mixed media, interdisciplinary practices and non-traditional mediums and found object. The analysis of contemporary practices lead to students developing personal strategies in sculpture. Working 3-dimensionally provides skills, creative thinking and appreciation applicable to many fields of study, including careers in education, counseling, therapy, business, marketing, communications, art history and any of the other visual art disciplines. Coursework encourages experimentation and self-discovery.
