Glass as Medium: Kilnforming was an independent study at Urban Glass with support from the Pratt Institute Graduate Student Engagement Fund. Our excitement about glass motivated us to pursue individual study in kiln forming and share this knowledge with our MFA community. We believe that glass has the potential to be a critical player in the contemporary dialogue surrounding fine art and will open doors for artists in their own investigations.
