Sculpture and Ceramics Minor
About the Sculpture and Ceramics Minor
Sculpture is process oriented and experimental, combining the development of intellectual and manual skills in a dynamic studio environment. Students pursue their individual artistic interests through work in traditional and new genre sculptural practices including site-specific installation and collaborative work. Students have access to a woodworking shop, ceramics studio, plaster & fabrication facilities, and digital technologies, to create art in conversation with our time.

Sculpture and Ceramics Minor Experience
Students develop an understanding of materials and form in the sculpture as well as ceramics studios. The student鈥檚 conceptual intentions and how they take place in form are expanded and challenged in all 3-dimensional media as we connect making to meaning. The relationship of site to space and inquiry into the nature of contemporary sculptural issues are important explorations for the sculptor and student.
Powerful Combinations: Sculpture and Ceramics Minor
Students from the disciplines of Architecture or Engineering might be interested in the more expressive forms of the built environment while students in Art and Architectural History may see sculpture and ceramics as a vehicle and vessel of ideas. All forms of expression are encouraged from the utilitarian to the conceptual.
