Career

Milne graduated in 1985 from the University of Guelph, Ontario, majoring in Landscape Architecture.

After working for a short while at a landscape architect's office, Milne worked at a pre-press graphics shop managing a small group of digital typesetters. In 1988–89 she was a graduate student in the University of Iowa's MFA program in sculpture.

Licton Springs Park

From 1993 to 1996, Milne re-designed the Licton Springs, Seattle Playground in Seattle,[10] Washington.Working with ceramicist Lisa Halverson, and community volunteers, they worked with local school children to make urban wildlife tiles that were incorporated into the park design.

Since 2000, Milne has worked primarily in glass, although knitting also plays a major part in her non-glass sculptures. See, for example, "Grow Lights".[11] [12]

Knitted Glass

In 2006, Milne created "Knitted Glass", incorporating the techniques of knitting, lost-wax casting, mold-making, and kiln-casting. As Milne describes in, "Knitting wasn't yet cool...":[13] The process involves (A) knitting the original art piece using wax strands, (B) surrounding the wax with a heat-tolerant refractory material, (C) then removing the wax by melting it out, thus creating a mold; (D) the mold is placed in a kiln where lead crystal "frit" heated to 1,530 Fahrenheit melts into the mold; (E) after the mold has cooled, the mold material is removed to reveal the finished piece within.
