Wunderkammer nounwun·der·kam·mer (‘voond r,käm r)
1. a place where a collection of curiosities and rarities is exhibited2. in German, literally ‘wonder chamber’
In Sheridan’s Craft and Design program, students in ceramics, furniture, glass and textiles have the opportunity to use materials to create unique pieces
of work. Students are taught to use their respective mediums while applying their individual styles and a variety of traditional and contemporary techniques. As the industry is quickly moving forward, Sheridan’s graduates are filled with
innovative thoughts and a unique approach towards their craft.
These unique creations by Sheridan’s graduating class of Craft and Design students reflect the development and progression of their studies over the past
three years. This collection of wonders, this wunderkammer, represents their thoughts and achievements as they continue to evolve in their craft.

PROGRAM In the third year of the program
students address the important goal of self-employment as a craftsperson. Through lectures and coursework, Sheridan students examine market dynamics in the craft and design arena as well as case studies of professional craft or consulting design practices. Upon graduation, Sheridan students are among the most talented and best prepared emerging artists and designers in Canada.
The Craft and Design program at Sheridan has been setting the standard for craft education in Canada since being founded in 1967. A close connection with the arts community, award-winning faculty, fully-equipped studios and a renowned curriculum all work to help students develop a critical sense of design and outstanding technical skills while at Sheridan.
The three-year Craft and Design program offers intensive, hands-on training in four studio areas: ceramics, furniture, glass and textiles. These are complemented with additional studios of design, drawing and photography.
The studio experience at Sheridan is supported by academic studies in craft history, communications, supervised inde-pendent research, visits from established artists and exhibition opportunities for students.
Ah the Wunderkammer. Even as an inert historic artefact it’s a tantalizing idea. Wun-derkammer is the German word; in English we also say Cabinet of Curiosities. It was a teeming, exotic Renaissance collection site. It was a place to amass rare and strange objects – natural, scientific and artistic. It was a chamber of curiosity. The Wunderkammer embodied wonder. The objects collected were embodiments, cabinetted. The Wunderkammer was a body of curiosity. In this wonder-room of curiosities, the wealthy powerbroker could also display a mastery of art and nature. When the collection was shared or displayed, some of this wonder reflected onto the collector. The Wunderkammer was then also an em-bodiment of mastery. The room embodied a master’s control of objects.
In the work presented here by the 2015 graduates of the Craft and Design program at Sheridan College, individual mastery is balanced and gathered into just such a site, embodying the wonder of challenging work. What these makers have spent three years dis-covering, however, is that working like this can also embody something wonderful within itself.
FOREWORDIn the Wunderkammer or Cabinet of
Curiosities, two superb words elide: wonder and curiosity. In the collected idea, these two words mean elation in the inexplicable, pleasure of marvelling. But the two words are not at all synonymous; they run off in different directions.
Wonder appears in different parts of speech (noun, adjective, verb) around the same idea – astonishment, marvelousness, bewilder-ment – even to the point of having to attribute the wonderful thing to supernatural forces.
Curiosity is a slightly slipperier word. Yes it involves novelty and the strange and the inter-esting and rare (that’s why it attracts wonder.) And of course it means something of inves-tigation and the proverbial cat. But curiosity also has an old meaning that is now mostly forgotten, but that lives on somewhere in the DNA of the word and, more tangibly, in the skin and bone-structure of Wunderkammer as it manifests in this catalogue. Curiosity can also mean something of attention to detail, proficiency obtained by careful application of skills, ingenuity. Until the late 17th century, the word curiosity meant perfection and ac-curacy of construction.
And that’s what these graduates have discovered. Through careful construction and ingenious skill and love of detail and material, curiosity and wonder can be returned to objects, rediscovered in a bureaucratic culture in which collecting turned into consuming. When these makers create an object well, it bears their silent slogan ‘I Believe in the Wonderful.’
By discovering the embodiment of wonder, these Sheridan craftspeople have managed to slip the adjectival into a verb. No more pas-sive objects waiting to be collected; these are active objects, wonderfully uncabinetted. These graduates have made objects that are remark-able, marvellous, unique and rare through their creativity and intellect, their curious wonder. Congratulations, class of 2015: your mastery of yourself and your skills makes a verb of wonder.
The Renaissance Wunderkammer was an embodiment, full of objects that projected curiosity and wonderment. What has been dis-covered in these three years at Sheridan is that there, in the inert material, curiosity collects and the wonder of the maker can be embodied too. It is an honour to celebrate this with this graduating class.
And remember, your object has a maker and it might in time have an owner, but it has no master. Never completely finished, curiosity keeps it active, engaged – a site of amassed, active wonder.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSThe graduates of the Sheridan Craft and Design program would like to thank Jess Riva Cooper and Isabel Stukator for their advice and assistance in coordinating the catalogue and our graduation exhibitions. Also thanks to Leopold Kowolik for generously accept-ing the task of writing the foreword for this graduation exhibition catalogue.
To the entire non-studio faculty, we would like to express our sincere appreciation in each of your contributions to the cultivation of our education in some way. Thank you also to the administration and support staff, Nancy Heath, Lynne Murray and Mary Cator, associate dean Heather Whitton, and program coordi-nator Gord Thompson.
A very special thanks to Jamie Owen for curating our shows. As well as Owen Colborne and Golboo Amani for their expertise and guidance in the photo studio. We could not have looked so great without you.
We would also like to extend our gratitude to Christian Aldo, at the SUPER WONDER GALLERY for the support and venue for us to showcase our work.
Last but certainly not least; we would like
to acknowledge the support of our friends, families and classmates. Without each and every one of you, we would not have been able to rise to the challenge and make it through these three years. Thank you.
CeramicsThere’s a fine line between great success and loosing your mind. The graduates of the ceramics program would like to extend their thanks to the faculty in Craft and Design for their tireless support and guidance during their intense and immersive three years.
Thank you to Linda Sormin our Fearless Leader for your remarkable sensitivity and dedication to your students; we mostly haven’t lost our minds. Gord Thompson, when times were tough and we thought we couldn’t make it another day, you kept us level, helped when we needed it, and challenged us to find our own strength. Thank you. The man who needs no introduction, Hugh Douglas-Murray, in times of technical disaster you were always there to show us how to fix the kilns, clean the bricks, get us what we needed and told us to never lose our momentum.
To our All Star Lineup of professors: Janet Macpherson, Lindsay Montgomery, Marc Egan, Tony Clennell, Drew Ippoliti, Bruce Cochrane and Steve Heinemann. Thank you for giving your knowledge, your time, your support and your patience.
FurnitureThe 2015 graduates would like to thank the entire furniture studio faculty for their continu-ous effort and support, and for pushing us to realize our potential throughout the past three years.
Special thanks to Peter Fleming and Robert Diemert, who have aided us at every step of our academic careers, and to whom we owe much of our success; the studio could not function without them.
To Connie Chisholm, Kirsten White, Scott Eunson and Scot Laughton for sharing with us their wealth of knowledge and technical skill, and for pushing us as designers and makers. Thanks to Heidi Earnshaw for your profession-al wisdom and continuous encouragement.
We would further like to acknowledge our esteemed guest critics for their respective
feedback and evaluation of our work and to Jamie Owen, who works very hard to make our work look its very best.
Finally, we would like to thank Hilditch Architect and Women’s Habitat for including us in the renovation of their women’s shelter. We greatly appreciate the opportunity to col-laborate and learn from this experience.
Thank you.
GlassOver the last three years, we experienced the highs and lows of learning to work with glass. Who would have believed that we would have learned so much in such a short time? As the school year comes to an end and we prepare to move on in different directions, we would like to thank the people who helped us along the way.
Special thanks goes to Jason Cornish, our studio technologist who makes maintaining a studio seem effortless and whose expertise in the field is beyond compare. To Koen Vander-stukken, for his “Koencepts” class, his belief in his students and his ability to show students what they could not see in their own work.
In addition, we thank our instructors, Andy Kuntz, Paula Vandermey, Sally McCubbin, Brad Sherwood, Steven Tippin, Lucy Roussel and Orion Arger, as well as our first year teaching assistants, Jason Cornish and Megan Smith. We also would like to thank our resi-dent artists Alyssa Getz, Tommy Cudmore, Steven Tippin, Patrick Fisher, Emma Gerard, Mathieu Grodet and Kasia Czarnota. We appreciate your time and effort when we needed help. We also thank you for sharing your knowledge and helping us refine our work.
TextilesAs first year students we did not realise the world of textiles is so complex: there is so much to master, so much to do and only so many hours in a day. As we, the graduating class of 2015, near the end of our time at Sheridan, we would like to acknowledge that everything we have accomplished would not have been possible without the help of some very talented, highly knowledgeable guides.
Special thanks goes to our technologist Janelle Guthrie. Without her, our studio would
be a t-pin-strewn, chemical hazard full of half-finished projects. We feel safer knowing that she’s close by to answer our never-ending questions.
We would also like to thank our studio head Rachel Miller, whose worldly expertise encouraged us to make richer, more inter-esting work. Our gratitude extends to Thea Haines, who has imparted much good advice over the course of many classes throughout all three years. We have benefited greatly from her vast knowledge and good taste.
Thank you Kerry Croghan, Sharon Epstein, Isabel Stukator, Kate Busby, Anna Zygowski and Kate Jackson. These instructors have, collectively, taught us a variety of skills that will no doubt make us better craftspeople. A final thanks goes out to our great studio monitors over the years: Heidi van Veen, Caroline Forde, Ana Diosdado and Chantelle Hermiston. Late nights in the studio would have been so much more difficult without you.
Thank you everyone. It was challenging and it was fun. We’ll always be grateful.
SPONSORSThe students would also like to extend a special thank you to our sponsors who helped make this catalogue and the graduate exhibition possible.
