{"id":34,"count":10,"description":"Everything starts with the material. Often the idea is not fully formulated before the hands begin their work. A force, a touch or a press starts up the material, puts it in motion and allows it to be reshaped. Staying in motion up until the point the hand decides it should stop. <br><br>\r\nCollecting, shaping and letting the materials speak with their own voice, remember in their own way. It is a work that extends through time, that reaches back, into history, into the hands of those who came before. Because it is always so: we are born into something that is already in progress; we step into a story which is not our own, but which we nevertheless must relate to. <br><br>\r\nAnd make our own. Which will carry on into the future and create the narrative into which others will step. <br><br>\r\nUnderstanding the story that we are a part of and taking it into the future is what three years of education in Ceramics and Glass are all about. <br><br>\r\nAnd the heritage, that which always seems so incontrovertible, so unyielding, what do we do with that? In our hands it becomes concrete, a resistance, a confirmation, a question. What was about to slip away is captured, reformed, given a new place in the light. And perhaps it is precisely here where something lasting can be found: in what we no longer take for granted, in what we recreate, in what we hold onto. In the material. <br><br>\r\nNina Westman<br>\r\nGuest senior lecturer, Ceramics and Glass","link":"https:\/\/konstfack2025.se\/en\/category\/bachelor\/ba-cg\/","name":"Ceramics and Glass","slug":"ba-cg","taxonomy":"category","parent":30,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2025.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/34","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2025.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2025.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/category"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2025.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories\/30"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/konstfack2025.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts?categories=34"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
