GLASS – FALL CONCENTRATION
SEPTEMBER 29 – NOVEMBER 8, 2024 (6 weeks)
Jennifer Caldwell and Jason Chakravarty
Fabricating Stories in Glass
This workshop will focus on creating narrative objects in glass. We will survey multiple approaches and techniques in an introductory and exploratory way, including applying imagery to glass, flameworking, cold working, mold making, several casting methods, and one or two weeks in the hot glass studio. We will develop ideas, break down designs, and plan as we create glass sculptures that are made in parts and driven by content. Discussions and demonstrations will focus on logical approaches to material and process and when, why, and how to use a certain glass type or technique. This will be a labor-intensive, experimental journey. All levels.
