Description
Slate Grove 5 day class
2 hour demo; 2 hours for each student
9 students max
June 4-8, 2010
This class is intended for those with some experience blowing glass to break out of the functional mode and start seeing glass in 3 Dimensions. This class will deal with everything from closed forms and blow punties to inside sculpting with oxy/propane torches. Issues of heating, turning, carrying more glass and preparing the proper shaped bubble for the final outcome will be constant conversation throughout the class. A love for experimentation and some glass experience required.
Instructor Bio: Slate Grove received his BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art and has taught at Snow Farm: The New England Craft Program, Williamsburg, Mass., 160 Glass, Brooklyn, NY and Urban Glass, Brooklyn, NY as well as having been a visiting artist at Rochester Institute of Technology and Iowa State University. Slate has exhibited work in Seattle, WA; Chicago, IL; Toronto, Ontario, Canada; New York, NY; Cleveland, OH; and Louisville, KY and is currently the Glass Studio Coordinator at Penland School of Crafts.
