Shane Fero

Survey of Forms in Soft & Borosilicate Glass

Dates: May 19 - 23
Level: Intermediate
Flame Shop

Shane FeroShane Fero has been a flameworker for 39 years and is currently the President of the Board of Directors for the Glass Art Society. We will cover solid sculpture encompassing the human figure, animals, avian, aquatic, and other denizens of the natural and dream worlds utilizing soft glass and borosilicates. It would also benefit people who want to make sculptural beads and small sculpture for jewelry components. We will cover blowing with tubes to make blown beads, bottles, vases, and goblet forms using powders, shards, canes, and various other materials for surface decoration. In addition, we will investigate the use of mixed-media with flameworking to create pieces that have a contextual or thematic nature. Finally, Powerpoint lectures will provide a historical and contemporary context to flameworking and its implications.
