The Jewelry/Metals program uses concepts and techniques derived from the properties of metal and 3 Dimensional Design. Courses focus on material exploration and the development of ideas in the form of objects and wearable art. Exposure to a broad range of techniques encourages formal experimentation including challenging traditional metal practices and the use of alternative materials. Individual expression is developed as students pursue imagery and content.
Program
Students in ARTA 2081 Beginning Jewelry Design & Metalsmithing practice the techniques of piercing, soldering, stone setting, riveting, sinking, and casting to gain a working knowledge of metal and its properties. Assignments include concepts such as wearability, functionality, and the context of craft in art. Craftsmanship is an essential component of the course and largely determines the success of the work.
As students progress through the program, courses explore additional techniques and the use of metal with alternative materials. Techniques include raising, anti-clastic smithing, enameling, etching, die forming, chasing & repousse, granulation, carving, mold making, mechanisms, and large scale casting.
