CRAM 201: Ceramics

Provides a broad introduction to the full range of handbuilding and wheel throwing processes, including glazing and firing kilns. Working with clay, students acquire practical, critical and historical tools to consider ceramics within contemporary culture and current art practices. Assigned projects are structured around concepts, processes and techniques as they relate to utilitarian pots, vessels and sculpture. Demonstrations, discussions and presentations are regularly scheduled. Assigned and self-directed projects are developed and discussed in critiques.

Priority is given to CRCP and VIAR students in Year 2. Students outside of the registration priority group may register/waitlist for this course as of the registration rule release date.
