About this School Project (Gargoyle)
After learning about the Middle Ages and how the arts became part of history building up to the Gothic Era, and the construction of Gothic Cathedrals, students design their own "Grotesque" gargoyle. Using using a variety of hand-building techniques, like pinch pot, coils, and impressions, students built a free standing gargoyle sculpture. The body was constructed by forming a pinch pot and the unique gargoyle features were formed from clay and coils using the additive process. Impressions were used to embellish the textural qualities.
