Section Description
Sculpture is a studio art course that cultivates students' abilities to create original works of three-dimensional art that demonstrate innovation in concepts, materials, and formal qualities. Students will be guided through four major art projects that guide them through the exploration of sculptural materials and techniques. By the end of the course, students will learn to implement the fundamental principles of sculpture and become familiar with a wide variety of techniques and media.
Section Expectation
Students in the Sculpture course will be expected to produce creative three-dimensional works of art that demonstrate their facility in design, concept, and use of materials. They will be invited to use any materials, tools, and processes already in their repertoire; however, the materials provided by the instructor will be limited to wire, wood, cardboard, joint compound, and paper pulp. Students may want to supply additional materials if they desire to use materials outside of the supplied items. Students are encouraged to consider the appropriate media relative to their ideas.
Evaluation
Student grades will be based on the quality and innovation of their three-dimensional art, participation in in-class discussions, and overall engagement throughout the course. Each project is accompanied by a clear rubric explaining grading criteria and expectations.
