GLAS 222 Glass: Material, Meaning and MetaphorCollege of Art, Media & Design
3 credits 90.0 hours 200 level undergraduate course
In this class, students will explore the plasticity, malleability and responsiveness of hot glass. Hollow and solid-forming techniques will be introduced in the hot shop; construction considerations of larger, non-functional glass assemblies will be introduced and refined; non-traditional combinations of glass with common metals and other materials will be covered. These exercises will result in a series of site-specific installations of both individual and group design. Students will be challenged to expand their sense of scale, to explore unconventional display alternatives, and to develop their resourcefulness in accommodating the demands of installing glasswork outside the gallery setting.
Prerequisites Complete 12 credits from subjects IMAG, TIME, OBJT, ENVI or COMP*102 or COMP*112
