An exhibition of DOMESTIC TOOLS: chop sticks, forks, knives, ladles, picks, pincers, prongs, scoops, shovels, spades, spoons, spreaders, stirrers, tongs, and/or what you will, in clay.
Some pieces will directly convey the essence of the task, other forms will further elaborate with unique and meaningful design, style and material focus connoting layered messages beyond the intended function, others will reference an intended ritual, a setting and an elaborate, descriptive back story.

This hands-on workshop will focus on the potters wheel as a creative tool. The focus is on exploring process and not on finished pieces. Traditional pottery forms (cups, vases, teapots, etc.) will be covered, as well as assembling and altering thrown forms. Demonstrations will include making oval pots; cutting “darts” to articulate forms and creating unique shapes through assembling. There will be emphasis on exploring the potential for a variety of surfaces and textures. The aim is to help students make pots which are more unique and personal. Participants should have some throwing experience.
