conference workshoP

‘Conduit’

This workshop will be a balance of shared projects, demonstrations and discussions, alongside individual working time and tutorials. The aim is to provide a pathway for every participant to develop their own voice through set projects; ones that help build structure towards developing a creative logic for realising ideas. 

Materials other than glass will be employed in some projects, but will be used to reference glass as a material for artistic expression. The workshop will be based in kiln forming and cold working, although artists with experience in other areas of working with glass are welcome. 

Kirstie and Mel have developed a strong and supportive working relationship over the past 25 years; one based on philosophies of working and modes of investigating. These principles will be shared and used across all aspects of the workshop.  Both Kirstie and Mel have extensive teaching experience, built around developing and sharing studio and artistic experiences.
