Through a hand-building experience, students will focus on imitating ancient forms of small-scale sculptures and objects – like Stele-type monuments, deity figures, stamps, seals, and stylized pottery forms. In addition to handwork, students will have an ongoing discussion of the objects encountered in art historical images, and stories from antiquity. Symbolism and imagery will be explored as it relates to oneself and how we see various communal worlds; the home, family, friendships, and networks beyond. Students will mine content from our lives to find inspiration and consider the objects we use currently and how they connect to those of the past.
