DBM_BOOTH AT IMM 09
"Designing by Making"
Under this same motto a workshop was held with students of HfG
Karlsruhe (Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design) at the CIAV
Meisenthal in Lorraine (Centre International d´art Verrier) in
early 2009.
Initiated by Werner Aisslinger a number of methods were developped,
in which glass objects were to be produced not only by blowing the
hot glass into wooden or metallic moulds in a way it was
traditionally done, but to experiment with new materials and newly
conceived moulding techniques, sometimes combined with the
Meisenthal traditional stock of moulds, in such a way as to create
objects that were symbiotic in both material and or form.
The show features the entirety of fascinating objects produced
during one week of exploration, but also a small choice of
objects consequently evolved to be sold. |
