Clay A Summer Session 2

CLAY – SUMMER SESSION 2
June 2-14, 2024 (11 STUDIO DAYS)
Linda Nguyen Lopez
Handbuilding with Colored Clay

In this workshop we will use handbuilding techniques and colored clay to create abstract ceramic sculptures. Through experiments and exercises, students will create an abstract visual vocabulary by investigating and translating the world around us. We will create a series of playful objects focusing on repetition, texture, and color. Demonstrations will focus on construction techniques and colored clay tests. The workshop will also include discussions of visual perception, color, and abstract ceramics. At the end of the workshop, each participant will have created a catalog of colored clay tests and a series of small abstract objects. Mid-range porcelain; electric firing. All levels. Upper clay studio. 

Associate professor at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville; teaching: Haystack (ME), Ox-Bow (MI); exhibitions: Museum of Art and Design (NYC), Greenwich House Pottery (NYC), Craft Contemporary (Los Angeles); representation: Mindy Solomon Gallery (Miami), David B. Smith Gallery (Denver).
