3-D Studio Art

Catalog description

In this hands-on studio course students experiment with the fundamentals of three-dimensional design. Mechanical connections, structural stability, and expressive potential are explored in-depth as well. Spatial and visual elements are discussed in the context of our physical relationship to our environment and to contemporary and art historical influences. Each of the three main projects are designed to encourage students to think creatively, problem solve, improvise, and to discover how the creative process can unfold in exciting and unexpected ways. Image presentations, a museum trip, and group discussions and critiques complement the hands-on studio projects.
