Type of event: Short Course
Fold forming is an exciting technique used to radically change the dimensions of sheet metal. Learn with experienced tutor Paul Wells how to exploit the metal’s natural plasticity to create dynamic sculptural forms. Paul Wells has been teaching fold forming for more than two decades. In addition to teaching a range of established folding methods during this five-day course, he will share the secrets of his award-winning wire-scoring technique which he has developed in recent years. With the emphasis on exploration, you will practice the demonstrated folding techniques and then develop these ideas through focused experimentation, creating your own range of sculptural folded forms.
