seb on the solder
Amazing wax sculpture, by Chris to brass casted (not silver)
As I was casually swanning about the workshop this morning, our teacher Ki raised his hand in the gesture of the peace symbol. I smiled... Apparently peace was not his intention, but reminding me we only two weeks left of this term, this semester, and therefore only TWO WEEKS LEFT on these projects. Oh sh…dear! With loads to do, and time flying by, completing this ‘physical fact’ project is currently looking tricky.
There is something about the workshop close to the end of semester, I’m not just talking about the stress levels up and the defined worry on some faces (mine included) :) But this is the time when the pieces start taking form, and you can actually see and understand what people are making. With so many different elements to some designs it can be hard to properly envisage others plan, until the very end.

Gemma’s many brooches coming together… sexy red felt to be added later
The different ideas and use of materials are always exciting, eye opening, and inspiring. You hear questions being thrown about from person to person of ‘how did you do it?’ and ‘where did you source from?’ We don’t only learn from our (fabulous) teachers, but we end up learning a great deal from each other as well- which is tops! It continues to amaze me that we all start we the same brief, and how diverse the final concepts and products are.
Anyway the true freak out will come next week… our last week. I hope everyone makes it!!
