Performing Arts Course in Metalsmithing
Metalsmithing develops the student's creative ability through projects that utilize the plastic qualities of non-ferrous metals: copper, brass and bronze. Instruction includes forging, raising, soldering, or construction of functional or non-functional three-dimensional forms. Creative ideas are encouraged through critiques and slide lecture discussions of historic and contemporary metalsmithing. Creative Jewelry utilizes the plastic qualities of metal. Forging, sawing, filing, soldering and polishing techniques are examined in the initial semester. Subsequent semesters include casting, fabrication and stone-setting skills. Non-commercial attitudes of inventive design are stressed through critiques and slide presentations of historic and contemporary jewelry production and adornment.
