The Design Faculty has been making good use of the newly set up Ceramics Studio. Dozens of students have experimented with different clay projects.

The recently formed Thursday Lunchtime Pottery Club has been working on sculptural pieces. Shapes are formed using our wall mounted clay extruder. The end results have been fired and mounted on wood. They look excellent.

Larger installation pieces are fast coming off the production line. Many students have been making small parts which will be put together to create stunning ensemble exhibits. Watch out for our version of Anthony Gormley’s Field of Dreams, Ceramic Totem Poles, and in a joint exercise with Gardening Club (they processed the pallet wood!) Georgia O’Keefe’s ceramic flowers in wooden planters.
