This course introduces Design Arts students to intermediate hot glass working and finishing techniques. Design-based assignments foster the acquisition of intermediate skills in glass blowing, extending to colour work, component making and cold working, with an emphasis on the execution of multiples in response to Design briefs. Integrated demonstrations, lectures and course discussions provide students with a broader understanding of hot shop based techniques and practices in the areas of craft and design. Occupational health and safety instruction is integrated throughout the syllabus.
