Spring 2023 Raku Projects

Meret Oppenheim was a Surrealist Artist. Her famous piece: Object (aka Breakfast in fur) teacup, saucer & spoon covered in fur created in 1936 inspired Boulder High students to create their own sculptural cup and saucers.

Boulder High Pottery Students Piper Bradford, Isabel Iwaskow, Sophia Lull and Willa Rae Stockdale show their skills outside of the Pottery room creating garments from recycled materials for the TRASH THE RUNWAY show, Spring 2023. Congratulations to these amazing, talented students!

The ‘Judy Chicago Project’
Judy Chicago is an American feminist artist- who’s work in clay, sculpture, fiber arts, painting and even pyrotechnics are known world wide. Chicago’s most famous piece, ‘The Dinner Party’  pays tribute to  women throughout history who have contributed to our lives with the creation of a ceramic dinner set for each woman represented. This artwork by Judy Chicago  is shown at  The Brooklyn Museum in New York City. 
After learning about Judy Chicago, advanced Pottery students from Boulder High School created their own dinnerware set, choosing an artist that they particularly admire to represent, whom they feel has had a positive impact on society as well.  Judy Chicago:  “Once I knew that I wanted to be an artist, I had made myself into one”
