Paper Clay lighting

[Grant]

Last week I met up with a craftsperson that is creating lamps with Paper Clay - delightfully 'light' in more than one way.

Those interested can see examples at http://www.yenrobinson.co.uk/

All best,

My research was two part - I was researching artists who work with paper clay for a presentation and essay for context studies - "Culture and craft" - looking at the influences of culture/gender on a particular craft area. So part of that included looking at the studio pottery movement in the UK, and looking for examples of current paper clay artists.

The other module I did was a technical report looking at the effects of different types of paper additives on the properties of paper clay. I think the aim of the module was to see if we could conduct any kind of logical research, and report it with clarity - it wasn't particularly in depth, I am not sure if anybody would be interested in my findings?

I'll mention your 'other module' to Yen if I may - I'm sure her experimental and logical sides have both delved into different types of paper additives.
