Description

This studio based course supports the development of the individual student's sculptural ideas and through seminars, tutorials and critical evaluation, broadens the students' awareness of related issues in contemporary thought, sculptural theory and practice, and diverse areas of concern in the social and cultural environment. Students may choose to produce divergent or interdisciplinary works such as, site specific, temporal, ephemeral or performative installations, or develop particular sculptural forms such as object making or body works. The emphasis at this stage is on an open-ended, exploratory investigation of sculptural language, the stimulation of the imagination, and the development of creative ideas and rigorous studio methodologies through challenging project work. This process is supported by the acquisition of skills pertinent to the students' needs, including the presentation of projects, field work, studio theory and documentation of completed works.
