What do you think? How was this made?
Please note - I have changed the grading policy regarding daily grades. All blog assignments will count as ONE Project grade. You will start at 110, and points will be deducted for missing blog assignments (this will allow for one to drop). Please also remember that you have a Clean Up grade that counts the same way. You begin with a 100, and I deduct points for a mess that you leave for me to clean up.
In other words, there are no daily grades - only project grades. Please let your parents know this, and have them contact me if they have any questions.
This pot is very cool! It looks like the artist coiled to pot with larger coils at first and then went back with very small coils and didn't blend them in to give a wirey wrap around look. It's a very interesting piece, especially the smaller bud-like opening on the side.
ReplyDeleteThis pot is very interesting because it gives the illusion that it has three openings due to the way it expands and narrows irregularly. It was likely made by beginning to put the coils at a different angle about halfway up, where the openings diverge.

By following the pattern of the base, the clay conforms to this interesting shape. The body of the pot is surrounded by what looks to be tiny coils, but I actually think the grooves were created by carving in those grooves. The glaze coated them, and it gives a shiny and texturized appearance. The top opens and expands, forming two distinct openings; they look similar to pieces of coral swaying in the ocean.
ReplyDeleteThis pot is awesome! I think they just started at the bottom and it started to free form to the side so the person making it made it into the 3 different pipe-type holes.
ReplyDeleteI think the pot is super cool and is very different! It looks like the base is a free form base and then was built up with clay coils and smoothed at the top. I like the glaze that was used on it.

ReplyDeleteThis pot looks awesome but it seems like its extremely hard to make and requires alot of time, but i like where it begins and what it turns, its different from most ceramics pots and that makes it cool and unique.
