Mark Bickers - visiting lecturer

An inspirational talk by this young man - 2 or 3 years after he did his MA at the RCA. I found it quite inspirational and had a very good tutorial with him in the hot shop in the afternoon. He is doing interesting things with cutting glass and then picking it up again and re-shaping in the glory-hole. It gave me ideas -- funnily enough I had been playing around with the mitre diamond cutter the day before. Picture shows one of his 'splash' bowls. Rather pleasingly -- he sang the praises of DACS.
