Description
Shape, join, carve and construct your own designs and turn them into tangible sculptures. Each day begins with a brief lecture featuring examples from relevant artists, followed by practical tutorials with step-by-step demonstrations, ensuring you grasp the essential skills. You’ll explore sculpture through clay modelling, armatures, metal construction and direct carving. Investigating sculptural form and line and structure, you’ll develop your understanding of how the specific qualities each material has, so that you can take advantage of their mechanical strengths for your own designs.
