Ceramics 2 Jomon
Students will draw on past experience with coils and use that construction technique as a basis for building three different Jomon (meaning cord pattern) pieces of pottery. This work primarily occurred between 10,000-1000 BC and perhaps even earlier as seen in the links.
After gathering references and sketching, students will throw three pots on the wheel with white clay and create adornments with coils to represent the stylistic trademarks from this era.
