Emphasis is placed on material compatibility, mold construction, casting methods for complex three-dimensional forms, and finishing techniques. As an introductory project, students will scan their own head produce a 3D-printed model, and cast a scaled glass bust, providing a comprehensive overview of the digital-to-glass workflow.The course welcomes students new to either digital fabrication or glass, as well as those seeking to expand existing studio practices.
