Sustained Investigation

Inquiry Question

My sustained investigation will be guided by the question: how can I create a unique alien species and show their world through my clay sculptures/pots? I will look into previous representations of aliens and come up with my own story. I will experiment with various clay techniques such as coils, throwing, slab making, and sculpting.  Through these processes, I share my curiosity about what alien life could look like and my creature with my viewers. Throughout the semester I discover my creature as I create artwork about it. Through the glazing process, I will experiment with new techniques and bring my sculptures to life.
