Borosilicate: Basic Shapes in Glass

About the event

Unleash your creativity with our glass implosion workshop, focusing on abstract patterns and vivid colors. This technique enables you to design and encase abstract art within a pristine clear glass marble.

Who is this for: Adults

What you will gain: In this workshop, you will:

  1. Learn to manipulate glass rods in the flame for precise control.
  2. Shape glass using graphite tools and the natural force of gravity.
  3. Apply colorful patterns to clear glass, setting the stage for the implosion.
  4. Master the implosion technique to encapsulate the design within a clear glass marble.

Notes

Safety Guidelines: Dress Conveniently: Cotton clothes are the way to go since they’re less flammable. Steer clear of synthetic abayas and thawbs. Please ensure your clothing fits snugly, especially with long sleeves, to minimize risks and ensure your safety. Aprons Provided: You will be provided with an apron that must be worn at all times in the studio to protect your clothing. Jewelry and Watches: Please remove any dangling jewelry and bulky watches to prevent accidents during the workshop. Hair Safety: If you have long hair, we ask that you tie it back securely. Footwear: Closed, covered shoes are a must – no flip flops or sandals allowed. Avoid Perfume: Please refrain from wearing perfume during the workshop as it is flammable.
