Ceramics Coil and Slab Methods

There are 3 main hand building techniques for making 3D ceramic forms (pots). These are the pinch, coil and slab techniques. Since ancient times these techniques have been used to create large, imaginative and exciting vessels or pots. Until quite recently they have usually been functional but now they are made as decorative works of art. Many of the potters and artists who make these pots have become well known and their work is collected and displayed in galleries, much the same as paintings and sculpture.

Assignment For this project you will research the work of a culture, eg the work of Chinese, African, Greek, Native American, Nigerian, Roman or other pottery. Notice what techniques are used, how large the pots are, where they were made, were they glazed, do they have patterns on them, what techniques were used to create the pattern? Have the pots been made for a particular reason, are they just decorative, or do they have a message - is the artist trying to say something? When you have gathered all this information, put it all together in an interesting way, along with some illustrations, in your sketchbook – remember presentation is important. Using the resources you have found, design a coil pot of your own that reflects the essential design qualities of the culture you have selected. Draw 3 proposed vessels in your sketchbook. Keep the drawing in front of you as you work on your vessel.
