In this class students will explore techniques to construct three kilnformed boxes with decorative lids, as well as a wall panel that features a storytelling triptych. The magical, endless properties of thicker fibre paper will become evident at each step of the process.

 

Students will cut sheet glass into strips and stacks.  By using found forms or fibre paper, students will discover how to create glass boxes of any size and configuration. In creating fitted lids for the boxes, and the triptych wall piece, you have the opportunity to define an area with fibre paper which showcases a special flat glass piece and other elements made during the class.

 

Coldworking will be integral to the work to give it the finish it deserves. All firing schedules and project construction “shop drawings” will be supplied.
