You know, I love ceramics. I like feeling clay as something that is made as the same stuff as me, and then making something out of it. I never really bought into the whole 'life cycle, earth cycle' notion, though I know fully well it exists. I prefer what my art history teacher told me. Things come in waves. With ceramics, I do however feel the cycle of earth to earth and then back into other. It's pleasing, fulfilling, and maybe what art is meant to be. I don't know much about art yet so I can't say. I don't really feel the same with sculpture. There are so many materials that it is impossible to grasp all of them. Is it wrong, then, that I stick with my sculpture major as opposed to switching to ceramics? But what a ridiculous thing! to be a ceramacist only; all men think of is teapots and tea parties. I prefer my tea parties at the harbor of Boston and my art in a field rather than a glass case. Maybe I could join the movement and hail along as "ceramics as equal!", which I believe they are. But I think it's silly to rub in the point when most people hardly move past the first ten percent of artistic knowledge anyway.
