Description

This course will extend students understanding of the scope and possibilities of the jewellery workshop and provide an overview of traditional and contemporary perceptions of jewellery practice. Through lectures, demonstrations and projects, students will develop ways of working, acquiring skills and knowledge in techniques and with materials related to the practice of jewellery. Studio activity will examine the technology of metals and other materials applying such cold joining techniques as sawing, filing, drilling and riveting to translate ideas into wearable and non-wearable jewellery works.
