Create beautiful metal forms inspired by nature with a technique called Fold Forming, developed in the early 1980’s by Charles Lewton Brain. Fold forming allows us to use metal's unique characteristics by following what the metal naturally wants to do. In this class we will cover at least three different folds and some of their possibilities. This class will be a hands-on exploratory dive into organic dimension with copper.

  • This is an On-site course. Students must follow social distancing protocols and wear masks at all times. For more info visit visarts.org.
