Pottery designed for specific food
Requirements Identify specific foods and the typical way they are served and paired with other foods. Find examples of historical and contemporary vessels or serving dishes that would be suitable for the specific foods and pairings you have identified. Contemporary examples should be made by studio artists or individual designers. Design a utilitarian vessel that enhances the typical pairing or serving of these foods both visually and in terms of function. For example, the chip and dip server on the left has an unusual and interesting presentation strategy, at the same time that it functions well. Create variations of your design in clay prototypes/sketches to work out building techniques, proportions, surface design and any functional issues like balance, weight, appropriate glazes, etc.
