Fundamentals of Sculpture

Summary

In its original logic, this course should be a continuation of the course Fundamentals of Sculpture, which is taught in the winter semester. The experience gained in working with spatial composition, the logic of ongoing work, consisting of initial sketching and consultations, developed in the spatial composition of geometric bodies represent a starting point for more demanding work on the MODEL, an artifact moving on the border of sculpture / object / installation / small architecture. It should be MODEL, as the resulting artifact set in its specific task, in its specific location of the urban or rural landscape, specified by its material, structure, color. There are many design options, such as the Passion of the Christ, a milestone, a tombstone, etc.
