Veteran Obsolete
My work is battling on the Homefront, expanding more on the veteran lived experience and applying information about post-traumatic stress, stigma, and suicide; by using glass as a storytelling device.

Impetus Suicidium
Просмотров 100Год назад
The impulsive act of suicide is an ongoing tragedy that continues to cripple our nation’s military. Some of those who swore to serve and defend our beloved country are falling to this national epidemic. This work is a bold reminder about the exposed soft tissue, the act of suicide, and the finality to one’s life.

This work is becoming a foundational place I refer back to when things are spinning out of control. Glass is helping me understand more about myself while navigating throughout the world we are living in. I hope this little video and my work, can help stabilize a few thoughts for you too! Please share with someone who needs a little encouragement.

      @@geoffreybowton6111 I've listened to you now 3,maybe 4 times...and drifted back into time. Time was nothing to us then,but somehow,over the course of days,hours, long nights and into years now, it carries more weight than that ruck I carried. In 2019, I buried 27 people beginning with my younger and only brother. 2 weeks later, I was a pallbearer atmy commo mans funeral, the last of my team from Vietnam. Then, not even a week had passed and I was called again, to escort another one, and then another one and another and another and it all began to run into each other . What you've done here, has done alot , much in fact, to bring many eyes to bear on this entire issue of the aftermath. You've done great. I only wish,I could do even one tenth of this but for me, the greif and pain seemingly never ends. I've pressed up against that looking glass trying to peer into the past and the future, both at the same time to find a purpose. Sometimes, it gets , dicey at best. Soul shattering at the worst. All I can do is to offer you thanks, and to me, that just doesn't seem to be enough, but it'll have to do, for now. My most profound thank you to you, sir. 9th Infantry Division 7th SF Grp ARVN 1972-1975 18D30 US Army from Washington State.

    You and your work are so inspiring. Thank you for sharing your story thru this beautiful technique. As the mother of a disabled Iraqi /Afghanistan Vet, I am well aware of the difficulties that come with transitioning back to "regular" life. Thank you for working to bring awareness of the plight of our Vets.

    @oliverstock4861 2 года назад

    Hi Geoffrey, it's a fascinating technique. I'm just wondering. Do you use any release agent on the mold? It looks like a standard slumping mold, and glass normally would stick to it without a release agent or fibre paper.

    • @geoffreybowton6111
      @geoffreybowton6111 2 года назад

      Yes!! I am absolutely am using kiln wash in the mold. You will even find, as in casting, a small residual amount may build up on the exterior of the glass surface (even inside the glass). I will scrub wash and then hot wax the forms. This should help clean out the resid/wash.

    Loved watching your process. I've been wanting to try Pate de Verre for a long time but I just haven't wanted to work with plaster and clay to make the mold. Thanks for sharing. Your pieces are beautiful!

    • @geoffreybowton6111
      @geoffreybowton6111 2 года назад

      Yes, that is exactly why I am using this process. To get directly into the glass work and tool usages, before taking on the mold making. MM is an art form in itself !!

    • @geoffreybowton6111
      @geoffreybowton6111 2 года назад

      You can fire at Temps in the slumping ranges, I tend to go lower just above the softening range at 1265

    Fascinating…is the bowl of water to add water to the packing process or to clean the instrument as you work? Love love your work

    • @geoffreybowton6111
      @geoffreybowton6111 2 года назад

      Rae, it is to clean the tools as I am working. I use an abundance of Gum Arabic in my glass batch, so naturally the build up on the tool becomes problematic. Especially, when I want the surface to have no waves, or wavyness to the surface.
