Looking for a studio course for Spring 2012?
ALTERNATIVE MATERIALS
11432 - CRFT 3312 - 001
TR 12:30 pm - 3:20 pm
This course involves the exploration of alternative materials not primarily intended or used by fiber artists. Products such as Tyvek, rubber, adhesives, found and recycled materials will be combined with processes such as collage, layering, stitching, and heating. This is a course open for enrollment to majors and non-majors from sophomore to graduate level. The exploration of alternative materials will be used in conjunction with other media and unconventional methods of joining to create a strong, sculptural surface. Technical demonstrations, field trips, and conceptual problems with an emphasis on the process of collecting will be used as a basis for the creation of unconventional work. Students will be encouraged to experiment with these materials and processes in combination with media from other disciplines. Students will create work based on a personal direction discovered through the course. Areas of focus for study include two and three dimensional forms, functional and nonfunctional constructions.
MIXED MEDIA PRINTING
6019 - CRFT 3314 - 001
MW 8:00 am - 10:30 am
This course emphasizes the development of digital capture, exploration of scanning and digital cameras, and translating images on to pliable substrates including fabrics, papers, plastics, and other materials. Single and repeat images, pattern formation, scale, and collage work will be realized using inkjet printing, alternative photographic methods including, Polaroid, Thermofax, and Xerox, and heat and solvent based transfers. Students will experiment with analog and digital compositing processes and material considerations. Students will use these contemporary practices to create innovative two and three-dimensional work.
