Start of a new Semester 2011

Well it's been awhile since the last blog I've posted and the new semester is under way at Edinboro.  I'm currently hand building some sculptures for an exchange that the graduate students are partaking in and I'm really excited about it.  The work we make will be exchanged at the greenware stage and the surface of our forms will be done by the other graduate students.  Hopefully this will lead to new ways on thinking about our surfaces and how other artists might interpret them using their own glazes and techniques.  At the end of this project, we will show the work in a gallery setting.  I don't have any pictures yet to post of this progress, but I'll will try to have some posted by tomorrow.

    Hey Derek, I'm curious about this exchange. Is it between the Edinboro ceramics grads or someone else?

    Hi Earl! It's good to hear from you. The exchange is with the other Edinboro ceramics grads. I guess it'll be kind of a draw a name out of a hat type of thing and that grad student who picks the name of the other grad student will have to decide how to finish the form of the maker. I think it'll be interesting to see what type of surfaces the other grads will do on my work, as well as what I get to do on theirs.
