Steve Brown’s postdoctorate projects are currently focused in three areas:
The exploration of depth in printed ceramic transfers
This is a speculative commercial project for the designers Queensbury Hunt who are funding the development of in-glaze transfers with qualities of depth. Steve Brown is leading the technical developments and advising on potential print production.
Lo-tech accessible approaches for 3D printing in glass in the studio
This is a project that Steve Brown has been developing within his own studio research and with some support from the Bullseye Glass Co. His outcomes for this ongoing project have been well received through a number of exhibitions and he has recently disseminated the findings through a conference and series of successful workshops.
The third project is the ongoing development of the printed flexible fabric moulds, which were the main feature of his doctoral project, ‘The Physicality of Print’. His PhD opened up many exciting strands that will provide ongoing research for the near future.
