This course offers an introduction to image on glass in 2 dimensional and three-dimensional applications. It encourages kiln room and hot shop cross-pollination, fosters an in depth approach to problem solving and collaboration, and supports an intermediate to advanced exploration of glass through individually directed thematic enquiry. Technical demonstrations and courses introduce new techniques, and address the specific needs of individual projects. Original individual exploration is supported through group discussions and tutorials. Students develop a short work proposal, to support extended material investigations that integrate new skills, and highlight their growing understanding of the contextual and conceptual underpinnings for their projects. Occupational health and safety instruction is integrated throughout the syllabus.
Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion, students will have the knowledge and skills to:
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:- Competently utilise a range of 2D and 3D hot and kiln processes, in response to set tasks
- Demonstrate thorough investigation of the processes, terminology, forms and materials relevant to the multiple areas of glass practice in response to set tasks
- Work independently and/or collaboratively in a glass workshop environment in response to project demands
- Develop and evaluate concepts and processes by thinking creatively, critically and reflectively across a range of techniques in response to conceptual underpinnings
- Demonstrate how the project is informed by critical engagement with historical and theoretical contexts
Indicative Assessment
Portfolio of studio work (80%) [LO 1, 2, 3, 4]and Journal/Documentation/Studio Theory presentation (20%) [LO 4].
Feedback on work in progress is provided during class and at mid semester review session. Final assessment will be based on presented completed works, journals, tests and models.
