  • Recycled Glass Bead Production in Selected Towns in Ashanti
    RECYCLED GLASS BEAD PRODUCTION IN SELECTED TOWNS IN ASHANTI (Darbaa, Asuofia Asamang and Akropong) BY EUNICE KANKAM-DWUMFOUR (B.A) INDUSTRIAL ART, CERAMICS A thesis submitted to the school of graduate studies, KNUST in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the award of the degree of Master of Philosophy in African Art and Culture Faculty of Fine Art, College of Art and Social Sciences. September, 2009 © 2009 Department of General Art Studies CHAPTER ONE INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background of the Study Glass which is manufactured from naturally occurring materials such as silica (obtained from sand, flint pebbles or quartz), soda ash, lime stone etc have over the years been recycled. In countries like the United States and Great Britain about 80% of all produced glass bottles are recycled (Glass recycling information sheet, 2007). In recycling glass, unlike paper and other products, no loss in purity can be observed provided the glass is well cleaned and sorted by colour. In the actual manufacturing of the glass, from raw ingredients, an exceptionally high quantity of energy is needed to turn the raw materials into a melted glass batch. The melting temperature for pure silica is 2200°F or 1710°c, obviously this temperature is far above the temperature range of most kilns. That notwithstanding, this high temperature makes glass production uneconomical, environmentally unfriendly (pollution) and capital intensive. Recycling glass, therefore, helps to save energy and thereby reduces cost of production. The glass to be recycled is broken into smaller pieces called cullet and mixed with a quantity of raw ingredients to form a batch which is then introduced into the melting tank.

This bead glossary also provides links to more in depth content and bead resources. It can be used as a beading A to Z reference guide to dip into as needed, or as a beading and jewellery glossary for beginners to help broaden beading and jewellery making knowledge. It is particularly effective when used alongside our Beading Guides, Histories, Theories and Tutorials, or in conjunction with our Gemstones & Minerals Glossary and Venetian Glass Making Glossary. A ABALONE These edible sea creatures are members of a large class of molluscs that have one piece shells with an iridescent interior. These shells have a low and open spiral structure, and are characterized by several open respiratory pores in a row near the shell’s outer edge. The thick inner layer of the shell is composed of a dichroic substance called nacre or mother-of-pearl, which in many species is highly iridescent, giving rise to a range of strong and changeable colors, making it ideal for jewellery and other decorative objects. Iridescent nacre varies in colour from silvery white, to pink, red and green- red, through to deep blues, greens, and purples. Read more in our Gemstones & Minerals Glossary.

    Bev Koski Katie Longboat Jean Marhsall Olivia Whetung Guest curated by Lisa Myers Resource Guide Textile Museum of Canada October 10, 2018-May 26, 2019 Beads, they’re sewn so tight, guest curated by Lisa Myers, is an exhibition of work by four contemporary artists who innovate in the field of beading and quillwork. In beadwork, threads create structure and hold beads together, creating a seemingly invisible scaffold. As metaphor and as material, they unite form, design and meaning. Beads, they’re sewn so tight takes up the depths of social and political relations embedded in the visual language of pattern and surface design including living traditions with an emphasis on family and community networks. Beads, they’re sewn so tight features over 40 beaded works by Bev Koski, Katie Longboat, Jean Marshall and Olivia Whetung, many of which are shown here for the first time. From weaving to loom-work and embroidery, their artwork threads together formal aspects of artmaking such as colour and composition with critical issues such as language retention, stereotypes, and social and environmental injustices for Indigenous people. "I see these artists as not merely using beadwork in their art practices but building on the technique and knowledge of beading and quillwork," said Myers. "They have each honed different beading techniques, working meticulously to convey meaning through work that’s conceptually driven." Bev Koski’s new beaded series consists of swatches of modernist abstract patterns found in day-to-day life, from product packaging to family photographs. Pattern is also a focus of Katie Longboat’s study of her Cree grandmother’s bead designs, which inform her experimentation with Cree floral design and Haudenosaunee raised beadwork.

  • Beads: Symbols of Indigenous Cultural Resilience and Value
    Beads: Symbols of Indigenous Cultural Resilience and Value by Malinda Joy Gray A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by Malinda Gray 2017 Beads: Symbols of Indigenous Cultural Resilience and Value Malinda Gray Master of Arts Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2017 Abstract My intention for this paper is to explore the cultural relevance of the influence that beads have had on Indigenous people in North America. By exploring the inherent cultural values that beads possess in Indigenous culture, I hope to illuminate how beads have come to represent Indigenous resiliency after the effects of colonialism and the residential school system. I aim to illustrate how important this art form has been in the past and will continue to be in the future. Beads should not be portrayed as simple trinkets that Indigenous people have sought to trade in the past, instead, they are integral elements to the greater Indigenous society both prior to and concurrent with European contact. Beads are playing an integral role in repairing cultural ties and spiritual beliefs to Indigenous artists. Beadwork has been, and will continue to be significant in representing Indigenous resiliency as well as highlighting the distinct cultural value of Indigenous peoples. ii Acknowledgments I would like to acknowledge the love and teachings of my late parents, Leo and Ruth Marie Keesic. Without their guidance, I would not be the woman that I am today. Even though they both passed away many years ago, I know that they are proud of all that I have accomplished.
