SU Fall 2019 Ceramics I
Assignment: Cups
Create at least 2 functional cups with at least one other complimentary form. These objects will comprise a thematic group.
Some students choose to interpret this assignment with very elaborate compositions; other students focus on more understated form and surface. Function and attention to detail (craftsmanship) are always the main goals. The variety of outcomes contribute to an interesting discussion on the concept and challenges of making (and using) utilitarian forms.
These 'paint can' cups could be lifted from their 'paint palette and brush' stands; they were fired to cone 6 in oxidation (electric kiln), and are approx. 9" tall.
