Glass F

MSTD3522

The unit provides a studio-based approach to glass-working. Students will, in conjunction with staff, develop individual proposals that continue to expand areas of exploration relevant to their interest and appropriate level of practical skill. Emphasis is placed on developing theoretical and relevant skills towards realising set goals. Students are expected to present a body of work that realises these goals. The body of work is expected to be cohesive and demonstrate competence in critical and technical terms. A variety of glass-working activities are available for students to develop their skills, including: glass-blowing, cold-working, polishing and cutting, lathe-working, engraving, kiln-working, casting and mould-making, flame-working and glass-painting and sand-blasting. This semester culminates in the professional presentation and documentation of this work in the end-of-year exhibition; therefore, skills are developed this semester that extend on the professional presentation and finishing of objects in glass and other materials.
