examples of ancient pottery from around the world
breaking tradition
breaking tradition
Analyze ancient artwork examples. Research how ancient pottery influenced and impacted ancient cultures. Explore how contemporary artists create meaning by referencing artwork of the past and by breaking tradition. Choose one piece or form of ancient art to research. Brainstorm ways to reference the art form and break from tradition.
Plan the design by sketching and creating meaning. Consider how the knowledge of culture, traditions, and history may influence personal responses to art.
Create a slab or pinch pot base.
Create the coils by rolling them, squeezing them, extruding them, or forming them into long rectangles against the table. Slip and score the coils to the base and to each other as the piece is built.
Build with slightly shorter coils to make the piece become more narrow as it's built or slightly longer coils to make the piece become wider as it's built. Decide to smooth the coils or leave them exposed to show the lines.
Bisque fire the clay.
Glaze the work. Create finishing textures and effects. Allow glaze to dry. Glaze fire the piece. Present finished glazeware.
Participate in a peer critique, discussing how artworks both reference and break tradition.
