GVA2322

Minor ceramics 2

O Rye

6 points * 5 studio hours per week * First/Second semester * Gippsland * Prerequisites: GVA1321

Objectives By the completion of this subject students are expected to have become aware of the expressive possibilities of the ceramic medium independent of other media; developed a sense of personal direction in the ceramic media; further developed disciplined work cycles; and further developed safe working procedures.

Synopsis Students will be encouraged to limit their intentions in consultation with the staff, so that means can be devised to work at a deeper level in a narrower field of ceramic processes. Narrowing the media and the ideas focuses the student on quite specific goals achievable with some competence within the confines of the minor subject time frame.

Assessment Studio participation: 20% * Set projects: 20% * Final show of work: 60%
