Alkuvuosi on aina uusien harrastusten aikaa. T\u00e4lle kev\u00e4\u00e4lle valitsin kaksi uutta harrastusta, kirjansidonnan ja lasin uudelleenmuotoilun. Lasikursseilla olen k\u00e4ynyt aiemminkin: p\u00e4\u00e4si\u00e4ismunakurssilla, useammalla lamppuhelmikurssilla ja viikinkihelmikurssilla. Niit\u00e4 j\u00e4rjest\u00e4\u00e4 Sastamalan Opistolle Lasistudio Jan Torstensson<\/a>. Torstenssonit ovat hauskaa porukkaa, koko perhe on lasinpuhaltajia. Heid\u00e4n kursseillaan k\u00e4yd\u00e4\u00e4n ymp\u00e4ri Suomen. Lasistudio on erikoistunut k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n kierr\u00e4tyslasia ja on saanut Satakunnan INNOSUOMI-palkinnon innovatiivisuudesta materiaali- ja energiatehokkuudessa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Puolentoista p\u00e4iv\u00e4n mittaisella kurssilla ehtii tehd\u00e4 noin 7-9 lasiesinett\u00e4. T\u00e4m\u00e4kin on k\u00e4sity\u00f6tekniikka jossa vain mielikuvitus on rajana. Voi tehd\u00e4 taide-esineit\u00e4 joissa on erikoisia muotoja tai k\u00e4ytt\u00f6esineit\u00e4 kuten juomalaseja tai pieni\u00e4 kulhoja. Koristeellisista pulloista saa upeita maljakoita tai kaatimia, simppeleist\u00e4 pulloista voi tehd\u00e4 eleett\u00f6mi\u00e4 juomalaseja ja hioa ty\u00f6st\u00f6tekniikkaa. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lasin uudelleenmuotoilu on t\u00e4ysin erilaista hommaa kuin nuo aiemmin kokeilemani lasihommat. Materiaalina k\u00e4ytet\u00e4\u00e4n vanhoja lasipulloja ja -purkkeja, jotka ensin esikuumennetaan j\u00e4\u00e4hdytysuunissa ja sitten uudelleen polttouunissa, metallitangon nokassa muotoiltavaan kuumuuteen. Jokainen pullo ja purkki on v\u00e4h\u00e4n erilainen, joten ne k\u00e4ytt\u00e4ytyv\u00e4t kaikki v\u00e4h\u00e4n eri tavoin. Lis\u00e4ksi k\u00e4sitelless\u00e4 voi tapahtua jotain, pullo ei tartu kunnolla puikon p\u00e4\u00e4ss\u00e4 olevaan puntteliin, se ehtii j\u00e4\u00e4hty\u00e4 liikaa ja saa s\u00e4r\u00f6n, tai se osuu johonkin ja halkeaa. Tai sitten siihen k\u00e4ytetty lasi on vain muuten jotenkin hankalaa k\u00e4sitelt\u00e4v\u00e4\u00e4. Lasinpuhaltajat sanovatkin ett\u00e4 lasilla on oma tahto, se k\u00e4ytt\u00e4ytyy miten sit\u00e4 huvittaa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minua kiehtoo lasi elementtin\u00e4 koska se on niin arvaamaton. Kuuma, el\u00e4v\u00e4, l\u00e4hes nestem\u00e4inen lasi on vaikeasti hallittava. Sen k\u00e4sittelytekniikat ovat t\u00e4ysin erilaisia kuin pehmeill\u00e4 materiaaleilla joihin olen tottunut. Perfektionismiin taipuvaisena lasi antaa minulle mahdollisuuden heitt\u00e4yty\u00e4, kokeilla, ja oppia. Kurssilla on ilahduttavaa n\u00e4hd\u00e4 muiden ideoita ja toteutuksia, oppia lasista ja sen k\u00e4ytt\u00e4ytymisest\u00e4, ominaisuuksista ja mahdollisuuksista. Lasi opettaa my\u00f6s n\u00f6yryytt\u00e4 sill\u00e4 aina tulee my\u00f6s pettymyksi\u00e4 kun joku esine tai helmi menee rikki tai idea ei onnistukaan. Joka kerta tulen kuitenkin lasikurssilta kotiin inspiroituneena ja innostuneena. Niin k\u00e4vi nytkin. Aloin jo suunnitella millaisia lasipulloja t\u00e4ytyy alkaa haalimaan, seuraavaa kertaa varten. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The beginning of the year is always a time for new hobbies. This spring I chose two new hobbies, bookbinding and glass remoulding. I have taken glass courses before: an Easter egg workshop, several lampwork courses and a Viking bead workshop. They are organised for Sastamalan Opisto by Lasistudio Jan Torstensson<\/a>. The Torstenssons are a fun bunch, the whole family are glassblowers. Their courses are popular and people attend from all over Finland. Glass studio is specialiced in recycled glass and has received INNOSUOMI award for innovative material and energy efficiency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the one and a half day course you can make about 7-9 glassware items. This is another craft technique where only your imagination is the limit. You can make art objects with unusual shapes or handy household items such as drinking glasses or small bowls. Decorative bottles can be used to make stunning vases or jugs, simple bottles can be used to make plain drinking glasses which allow you can hone your crafting technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reshaping glass is a completely different animal compared to the glass work I’ve tried before. The material used is old glass bottles and jars, which are first preheated in a cooling furnace and then attatched to a metal rod and reheated in a kiln, to a formable temperature. Each bottle and jar is slightly different, so they all behave slightly differently. Also, something can happen during processing, the bottle doesn’t grip on the metal rod properly, it gets too cool and cracks, or it hits something and breaks. Or the glass used for it is just otherwise difficult to handle. Glassblowers say that glass has a mind of its own, it behaves as it pleases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m fascinated by glass as an element because it’s so unpredictable. Hot, living, almost liquid glass is difficult to control. It’s handling techniques are completely different from the soft materials, which I’m used to. As a perfectionist, glass allows me to indulge, experiment, and learn. On the course, it is a pleasure to see others’ ideas and projects, to learn about glass and it’s behaviour, properties and possibilities. Glass also teaches humility because there are always disappointments when an object or a bead breaks or an idea doesn’t work out. However, every time I come home from a glass workshop inspired and excited. That’s what happened this time too. I already started to plan what kind of glass bottles I need to start collecting for the next time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the first day of the workshop I made three brighter green items, while getting to know the technique. On the second day I made three brown glasses, green vase and small vase. I have used differente techniques to reshape these items from tweezers to gravity. Clear little vase has been partially shaped by blowing.
