62-407 Intermediate Coldworking: Breaking Through and Archival Cuts
3 units, Carnegie Mellon University
Take your cold working to the next level in this new and exciting coldworking class. Explore how traditional cold working can be utilized in non-traditional and modern applications. Collaborate with glass blowers in the Hot Shop to design colorful items then manipulate them to reveal layers of color with the lathe, sandblaster or lap wheels. Experiment with combining found objects, cement and glass then cutting, laminating and cold working into a new and different shape. Come away with new skills, fun projects, and inspiration for more complicated works. Class tuition includes 6 hours of studio rental time to be used during the 8-week course period. Rental time is purposefully included with this 8-week course to give students independent studio time to practice the skills and will be required to be able to complete projects.
