Sculpture/Performance/Installation 1A - SART1314

This studio based course provides the basic foundations for sculptural studies through a series of projects that are a trajectory into the students' personal creative enquiries. The projects foster a relation between concept to process, and intention to outcomes. Critical awareness and interpretive skills are developed along with an understanding of basic sculptural languages such as metaphor, narrative, metonymy, space, materiality, form, mass and scale. The interdisciplinary nature of contemporary sculptural practice is emphasised and includes a diversity of experiences such as producing works using time, light, installation, sound, collaboration and performance, as well as exploratory applications of traditional forms and methodologies.
