    Description
    This course further develops the use of clay and the pottery wheel as an expressive and utilitarian medium. Lectures will highlight the use of this versatile medium from contemporary, cultural, and historical perspectives, and students will research assigned and student-chosen historical examples and apply the research to their projects. Pottery shapes requiring singular and multiple form components will be investigated along with kiln firing and glaze mixing and calculation. This course will continue development of personal imagery and concepts of ceramic design, decoration, and glazing. Lab assignments focus on throwing techniques and glazing.
