Besides professional designers, artists and master craftsmen in the field of glass engraving, students can also participate in a separate section with their own works ¨in the 7th International Symposium of Engraved Glass in Kamenický Šenov. At the same time they will become acquainted with personalities of the field and their artistic methods. The intention of the organizers is to create unique atmosphere of creativity and interaction, context of the history and present of the venue, and also demonstration of contemporary ideas and methods used in this glass field.
The goal is to create an original piece of work, art concept or project using mainly the engraving technique under the guidance of an experienced instructor Susanne Kunkel at the Secondary School of Glassmaking in Kamenický Šenov from 11th to 15th September 2017. Students can consult their projects during the summer, use the prepared material or bring their own. The organizers endorse free and vital creative process influenced by the place and environment and therefore will be inclined to projects that make use of already prepared material.
