The project "Spinaker 2021-23 - Artistic Spinning" is an international educational program between the Tokyo University of the Arts & The Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art & Design in Wroclaw, Poland. The course held between October 21, 2021 to January 7, 2022, and the program was filled with international students who aspire to explore the traditional Japanese and Polish methods of glass. I was in charge of a course on traditional Japanese glass casting. Other courses are coldworking and stained glass by renowned artists, Marzena and Joanna, and hot slumping by Prof. Fujiwara. We had a lecture about the instructor's activities and glass works, and a discussion about our challenges and results.
My heartfelt thanks to my dear and wonderful friend, Marzena for connecting these two countries!! |
