Learn to incorporate imagery into your kiln formed glass using various printmaking processes such as lithographic image transfers, screen printing with glass powder and chine colle (collage). Photographs, drawing and text can be used to create components that are then combined into layered projects. The master class also covers fusing basics, colour reactions, colour, composition and correct firing and annealing procedures for each process. No print making or glass experience necessary. All materials are included in the workshop fee.
[themify_quote]‘My current work incorporates both printmaking and glass…One of my fascinations with both mediums is their ability to retain a record of how the piece was created. I tend to approach both processes in an experimental way, letting the properties of the materials suggest and guide the content. Conceptually my work reflects this process of transition – objects in motion, imagery submerged just below the surface, the traces of an explosion. I am interested in examining how evidence is presented, how events are reconstructed.’[/themify_quote]
