Volumes In Volumes (C0102)
| Full Course Title | Volumes in Volumes: the practice of ceramic installation (C0102) |
| Dates | Jun 07, 2010 - Jun 11, 2010 |
| Concept | Ceramicists shape space, traditionally by making vessels. Contemporary ceramicists are exploring installation, working with relationships between multiple objects. Explore systems to make multiples and strategies to construct meaning through their arrangement. Key questions are: How do we construct an object that holds its significance as a multiple? How do we creatively combine the content of an object and the context of an installation? How does the material of ceramics work with other media to create meaning? |
| Media & Techniques | We use earthenware and mixed media working primarily with handbuilding techniques and using simple mold making techniques and templates. We explore approaches to install objects in tandem. |
| Activities | Activities include slide presentations, demonstrations, discussions and studio sessions to make objects and installations. |
