My theme is movement through glazes. I used glazes to show movement by mixing them, creating patterns, dripping glazes, and also putting glaze on to adhere to the shape of the project.
I have multiple examples of projects that emphasize movement through glazes. My tall frankenproject shows movement through the glaze. It has dripping glaze that drips down from the top and shows how tall the project is and how it moves downward. Another example is a big bowl that I mixed white, blue, and black glazes together in order to show how the bowls movement goes toward the center of the project. Another example is a vase that I glazed black, and then poured white on top of it in order to show the buldge of the vase. These projects are all wheel projects, that I glazed in order to show how the projects moved.
It is important to think while glazing and to show movement in projects. Showing the movement of the project also emphasizes the shape through the glazes. This semester I have come to realize the importance of glazes, and how they can be used to show the movement of a project.
