This class will challenge students to re-examine the potential of kiln-formed glass. Utilizing creative exercises, drawing, and model-making with a wide range of kiln techniques, students will combine processes, and prepare tests that may be starting points for new work or deepen current thoughts. Engaging in an experimental approach, we will expand on ideas rather than generate complete objects.
