Surface and Form: Tulip Vase Workshop


This is a ceramic arts workshop with Sanam Emami. Sanam creates beautiful functional forms and is an assistant professor of pottery at Colorado State University, Fort Collins.

In this workshop students will explore the use of pattern in integrating the pots form with its surface. Pattern and decoration not only adorn or embellish, they can also inspire formal decisions. The focus will be on vases with spouts – also known as tulip vases – that were designed to hold an individual flower in each spout or opening. The pottery wheel will be the primary tool for construction, with the addition of some hand building processes. Numerous decorative techniques will be introduced, including stamping, carving, slip decoration and silk screen transfers.
Fee: $93.25
