The series is broken down into six shows with the first five shows focusing on glass blowing with Róisín de Buitléar (Irelands best known glass artist), Ceramics with Colm de Rís (one of Ireland’s biggest exports of pottery), Weaving with Beth Moran (a master weaver originally from the States but living on picturesque Clare Island), Metal with blacksmith Michael Budd and wood turning with Glenn Lucas (one of the fastest wood turners in the World.
Each week Craft Master’s two resident judges, Brian McGee (from the Crafts Council of Ireland – CCoI) and Derek McGarry (from the National College of Art and Design – NCAD) will be joined by an expert in the field of Ceramics, Glass Blowing, Wood Turning, Textiles and Blacksmithing to decided who of three should represent their practice in the final to be in with a chance of winning a stand in Showcase – Ireland’s International Trade Fair.
The judging panel will cut the fifteen apprentices to five with the remaining five competing in the grand finale, with guest adjudicators, designers Paul Costelloe and Louise Kennedy at Highlanes Gallery, Drogheda, screened on Tuesday 11 October where the Craft Master 2011 winner is announced.
