POTTERY I - Art Criticism I

A few weeks ago we talked about many possibilities for creating a container out of clay slabs. We looked at examples and discussed design elements and principles as they related to each piece. Now it is your turn to Describe, Analyze, Interpret and Judge a ceramic box created by Gerald and Kelly Hong. View the piece and answer the questions HERE. Perhaps you will be able to contribute more insight to the Interpret and Judge categories, after having made a similar piece of your own.
