INTERMEDIATE CLAY
Egyptian
Pot
This is a project that was inspired by the Egyptian culture. This project is made of ceramic and glazes. I used pieces of slab and slip and scored them together. After I created the shape, I made stamps that consisted of hieroglyphics. I chose symbols that are important to me; life, beauty and truth.

I was really fascinated with the emotional aspect of this project. The idea of making a mask and having part of it showing what people see and the other part was what you really felt was inspiring. After watching the video of the kids hiding their feelings, I felt a connection. I didn’t realize that people my age would hide their true feelings from everyone else. I think a mask like this is a perfect representation on how people feel on the inside versus how they appear on the outside.
