COIL POTS
Coil Pots are used to create large forms that are hollow. Students look at history and cultures to find their own voice.
SLAB BOXES
Slab boxes are constructed out of flat sheets of clay. Students make a lidded box that fits and consider what's inside?
Double Pinch Pot Container
Students created a closed form of two connecting pinch pots. They shaped, added, and carved clay into the desired form. Then cut the lid opening, cleaned out the inside, and created a miniature to sit inside that related to their overall theme.
