A) The 90-word object label (evidence-based)

Use the Week 3 label template:

• what it is

• what you see

• cautious meaning

• one question

B) Maker statement (120–160 words)

A maker statement explains intent and choices in a personal but professional tone.

Maker statement template

• What question/theme you explore

• Why ceramics is the right medium

• One key form decision and one surface decision (evidence-based)

• What you want the viewer/user to notice

• One reflection on learning or process

C) Process note + limitations (60–90 words)

This is where you communicate responsibly.

Include:

• forming method (coil/slab/wheel/cast)

• firing status (unfired/bisque/glazed/fired) if relevant

• limitations (e.g., “prototype”, “home-made without kiln”)

• functional safety note if needed (e.g., “not food safe unless properly fired and glazed”)
