After the smashing success of last year’s class, we’re back with an improved version. Dive into the intersection of glass casting and woodblock printing. Participants will embark on a journey merging traditional techniques to create new and unique artworks.
You will learn the fundamentals of woodblock printing, and how to carve intricate designs into wood blocks to produce striking prints. Then we will explore a novel approach: using the woodcut blocks to create molds for casting glass.
This hands-on course explores the fusion of traditional and contemporary printmaking techniques by transforming carved woodcut blocks into glass printing plates.
By the end of the course, students will have produced 4 remarkable artworks: a traditional woodblock print, a cast glass duplicate, and a print piece of each that celebrates the harmonious marriage of these two distinct mediums.
