Course summary

This emphasis is for students seeking a focused course of study in the three dimensional disciplines of sculpture and ceramics. Traditional and contemporary digital course work is included in the emphasis. Students in sculpture work in a large studio with outdoor access. Three-dimensional design courses involve students in conceptualizing their design ideas through drawing and computer-assisted visualization. In the studio, these ideas may be realized through a variety of processes ranging from traditional techniques in wood, metal and other materials to more contemporary techniques that may include robotics, light and sound. The jewelry and metals area offers course work in various processes including fabrication, electroforming, forging, centrifugal lost wax casting, lapidary work, and metal enameling. Students learn the basic techniques of metal forming and soldering and are then encouraged do further researching and working. Jewelry may be produced in silver, copper, brass, and mixed media. Students in ceramics approach work in clay through the investigation of ideas manifested in form. Technical expertise is developed through demonstrations and lectures providing technical information and imagery examples. Hand-Building and Wheel-Throwing courses are offered.
