Course Description

Students expand on the skills acquired in Foundation Sculpture, bringing materials, skills, and processes together to allow for experimentation while building a language specific to sculpture. Technical demonstrations in the areas of forging, stone carving, waste moulds, plaster casting, and metal fabrication are used to guide projects. Slide lectures, weekly discussions, site visits, and critiques help to develop the language surrounding sculpture in contemporary and historical contexts. Personal expression is encouraged through instructor supervised studio practice.

Registration in this course is restricted to students admitted to the Diploma in Fine Arts.
