Glass and Print: Translation and Transformation
Our point of departure is the interface between analogue and digital making in glass. We will consider different ways we can take glass from the 2D image to the 3D form and vice versa. It will be a quick sprint through elements of screen printing, kiln-forming. water jet cutting, and glassblowing! We hope to discover what is possible in the crossovers.
A Filipino-American artist, Jeffrey Sarmiento investigates transnational cultural identity through his works that combine the image and object, realised through analog and digital fabrication in printed and kilnformed glass. He is currently based in Canberra where he is Head of Glass at the Australian National University.
