Inside Out
This is my first year doing ceramics and before this semester I had never worked with clay before. I enjoyed each project that we were given and quickly saw growth in my ceramic skills. It was not until we were introduced to hand building that I realized that I enjoyed hand building the most, and would be able to create many pieces for the art show that I could be proud of. I started creating my pieces for the art show right when we were assigned to make planters. Little did I know that I would be incorporating some of these pieces into my final pieces. I created three planters, each that display a different emotion. One showing joy, one showing sadness, and the other showing anger. I was inspired by the movie Inside Out. This movie has stuck with me since the first time I watched it. The movie portrays the wonders of what drives people to make certain decisions. The movie shows this by creating characters that are “living” inside of the mind of the main character, causing her to feel different emotions. I really enjoyed being able to bring these planters to life and give them personality.
