The Arts and Crafts movement was a late 19th century design philosophy that championed handcrafted, high-quality items over mass-produced industrialization and valued the craftsmanship and beauty of handmade objects over machine-made ones, promoting a return to traditional techniques and a connection between the artist and the materials they used.
As well as learning about the history and legacy of the Arts and Crafts Movement, in this class you will explore different mediums related to this philosophy including dye/fiber exploration, polymer clay miniatures, ceramic items, bookmaking and more. A focus on handcrafted items, construction, functionality and relation of artist to materials will aid you in your creative problem-solving and developing your own unique design style.
