Off the Table: Sculptural Pottery
Luc Hammond-Thomas
Tuition $1,910
Code C1520-25
This course is designed for students to learn and practice methods of hand-building and encourage them to think out of the box to further expand their visual pottery vocabulary and studio practice. Through various hand-building techniques such as slab-building, pinch pots, coil building, low relief, and impressions, students develop the skills to evolve their work and make it truly unique. Students learn to complement this work with a variety of surface techniques including mid range glazes, color terra sig, water etching, bisque slip, and tape resist. The session ends with a demonstration on creating pedestals and displays using made and found objects, transitioning the work off the table and into the sculptural realm.
