Description
To celebrate the inauguration of the first Farnham Craft Town artist residency, the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) proudly presents The October Farnham Crafts Month exhibition, Shaping Glass | Shaping Futures, to be held at the James Hockey Gallery from October 1st to October 31st, 2024.
UCA students, staff and AiRs past and present are invited to submit proposal and images of their glass work for consideration by the event committee. We seek proposals for glass works that represent a significant evolution in your artistic practice and reflect your influence from your time at UCA.
The proposals for work are not limited to presenting glass artworks but can also include physical objects such as sketch books, experiments, and innovative tools as wells as digital formats. Some ideas for digital submissions may include films, photography, animations, documentaries of the making process, or digital representations of sketchbooks.
The Ceramic and Glass department at UCA hosts state of the art workshops that facilitate glass blowing, lamp working, kiln forming and cold working. Works made with any glass technique will be accepted, as will works that combine glass with other materials (at least 50% must be glass).
We welcome applications from tutors, technical staff, students and artists in residence past and present.
We will select up to 25 artists for the exhibition.
