Ceramic Connections: Wales & Scotland
Placement_Education_Pack_(Secondary)
It has been produced following Fife Contemporary Art & Craft (FCA&C)’s exhibition of the same name, which was a collaborative project between FCA&C and the Oriel Davies Gallery in Newtown, Wales.
Inspired by the artists in the Placement exhibition, the pack aims to introduce secondary school pupils to a range of contemporary ceramic work and by relating it to historical examples and events, to broaden their understanding of where it has developed from. The cross-curricular links are an opportunity to explore a diverse range of loosely linked themes.
The teaching resources give background to the exhibition and its artists, and, as well as providing ideas and information to back up the art & design projects, but can also be seen as starting points to explore points of interest further. None of the projects described require the use of a kiln.
