Dancing With Fire:​

explorations in movement

and texture:

​

Metals Week

A Vivi Magoo Production

in Mesa, Arizona

​

In this five day focused intensive, we will explore a variety of out-of-the-box techniques for an array of textures, from torch-tortured to hammer smashed to twiggy and twisted. We will experiment with ways of combining, fusing, even water casting silver to add organic textural elements to our creations. We will investigate many unusual, unexpected ways to approach adding movement to our work, be it through hinges, conventional and unconventional, or visual suggestion.  Throughout this workshop, I will also introduce many principles of design to guide you towards making  intentional choices in the direction of your work.  You will have time to explore and integrate your experiments into a variety of completed pieces by the end of the session

​

update: due to popularity, a second workshop was added! both are currently full, but don't hesitate to get on the waitlist.
