This rotation was so fun I can't wait until I offer sculpture 2 next year. We went over the basics of the media but learning about Space, Positive and Negative by doing Styrogami, then Form, or how to make objects 3D by making mystery bag sculptures. Lastly we learned about found object assemblages by looking at artwork by Louise Nevelson students loved spray painting their creations. For the final students had a choice of what they wanted to create based on the elements we learned about. I had students using plaster, paper mache, clay, wire, we went through lots and lots and lots of cardboard and tape too!
