| dc.description.abstract | Raising, a studio technique in metal forming has not been given much attention by metalsmiths. Spinning, an industrial technique for metal forming is adaptable for studio work but most craftsmen or metal smiths shy away from this technique since they believe it makes them less professional. However, the technique has interesting possibilities, and the aim of this researcher is to find out how well spinning (an industrial technique) can be combined with raising (a studio technique) to influence the development of hollow ware. « Qualitative method of research was used for this research. The whole study was experimental and the descriptive research method was used in the study to review related literature and to describe the various techniques and processes used in the project. Data for the research was collected using interviews and observation as well as the internet and library. The project was successful and the results were discussed under the intellectual, social, cultural, philosophical and artistic contexts. The project works were executed based on the theme "Passion for gourd". | en_US |
