After out clay experimentation, we looked at a variety of artifacts that were made during different time periods and for different purposes. We discussed what kind of artifacts we can make today that will define us.
The Bees and Little Eagles used bowls as a guide for molding a basic bowl-like containing shape.
After rolling coils, spirals were formed and pressed down
Students used different carving tools to smooth the clay and make various effects
After the sculptures were dry, the students painting them with tempera
After the sculptures were painted and dry, I sprayed them with a gloss sealer to protect them. The students created all kinds of artifacts that are personally meaningful to them. Many of them have an underlying narrative story.
