| Description | This studio course provides students with
production skills and relevant contexts pertaining
to the field of
contemporary sculpture. Students will learn about
a range of traditional and non-traditional
materials and
processes, including digital technologies, used in
sculpture practice. Through in-depth engagement
with
textiles/soft sculpture, digital fabrication,
metal or mold-making and casting, students will
engage with
contemporary approaches to sculpture and develop
studio projects in response to a variety of themes
and
concerns within contemporary and historical
sculpture. These will include experimentation with
a range of
introduced materials and processes such as:
assemblage, repetition/multiples, systems and
structures,
body extensions, the social sphere, or figuration.
Seminars including presentations as well as group
critiques and discussions will familiarize
students with the critical issues, ideas, and
approaches in the
field of sculpture and will develop students'
ability to contextualize their own work in
relation to
contemporary sculpture practices. |
