This is the ad for the new ceramics course being offered in the spring session at FAU in Boca Raton by Marty Fielding. Wow, 3d modeling and printing! Although I prefer my handmade to be literally hand-made, it is exciting to see ceramics merge with the digital world. I'm confident that there will still be a devoted group of younger clay artists who keep the traditional art and craft of wheel throwing and hand-building alive. I'd hate to think that clay will go the way of check-out counters where when the power goes out no work can be done!
I'm having a hard time picturing how this would be accomplished, but then I'm a "handcrafted" kinda person.
ReplyDeleteI guess it's an easy way to mass produce from an original but like you I prefer real handmade.

ReplyDeleteI'd really wanna to visit this new spring ceramics course. Unfortunately I will have no possibility to be there. Though my friend from www.paperwriting.xyz is quite interested and hopes she will be able to be there.
