For this project, you will create tiles with an image drawn, carved, pressed and/or painted onto the surface. You will need to bring in at least 3 items to press into the clay to create textures (think leaves, sticks, lace, buttons, old jewelry, etc.) Your central image will be a narrative (based on a story, true or fictional). Choose from literature, or create your own story (but you have to write it down!) You have two options for what type of tiles to create:
Single Tile: One tile, approximately 6”x6”, square or irregular outside shape.
Must include: at least 3 textures, at least one area of 3D sculpting, even background tile thickness
Multiple Tiles: Three or Four tiles, connected through a central image. Each tile is approximately 4”x4”.
Must include: at least 3 textures, at least one area of 3D sculpting , even background tile thickness
Your projects will be graded on the following:
Craftsmanship: Neatness, careful control drying (no warped tiles), glazing
Creativity: Well-planned ideas based on a story, careful application of textures
Community: How you relate to your peers, cleanup habits, attendance
