Join Zoe Garner for an introduction or refresher to flameworking with borosilicate glass. Experiment with a range of techniques to manipulate boro rods to form globes, chains or sculptural components. This course is an excellent opener for Zoe Garner's 3-Day course 'Connecting Forms' the following day.
Explore the potential of flame-worked Borosilicate glass, drawing concepts and ideas from the movement of the material itself. You will transform glass rods and tubes into components using gravity, centrifugal force, blowing and manipulation with tools and then connect your components into assembled structures.

Drawing concepts and ideas from the movement of the material, you will explore the potential of flame worked Borosilicate (Pyrex) glass. Rods and tubes will be transformed, using gravity, centrifugal force, blowing and manipulation with tools into components that will then be connected to form assembled structures.
