Unique Quality of Sculpture• Exists in space
• Viewed from all sides
• Actual space rather than illusion of space
• A sculptor sets out to fill space with original, visually appealing forms.
• These forms may echo reality, express powerful emotions, or communicate ideas.

Relief Sculpture• Not all sculpture can be viewed from
all sides. • Relief sculptures are 3-d forms
mounted to a flat surface.• Like paintings these sculptures are
designed to be viewed form the front.
• Bas relief – the sculptured forms project only slightly from the background
• High relief – the sculptured forms extend boldly out into space

Processes of Sculpture• Modeling – is a process in which a
soft, pliable material is built up and shaped into a sculptural form.
Clay Wax or Plaster
Sculptor will gradually add more and more material to build a 3-D form, this is known as the additive process
![Page 11: Chapter 3 - Lesson 3](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062301/56815292550346895dc0b5ae/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Processes of Sculpture
• Carving – is cutting or chipping a form from a given mass of material to create a sculpture.
Stone , Wood
Removing material in order
to create a sculpture is
known as the subtractive
process.
Each type of stone has
unique characteristics
which create individual
challenges and textures.

Processes of Sculpture• Casting – a melted-down metal or
other liquid substance is poured into a mold to harden.
• This method allows the artist to duplicate an original
sculpture done in wax, clay, plaster or some other material.• Most widely used • for is known as • the “cire-perdu” • or lost wax. Well • over a thousand • years old • method.

Processes of Sculpture• Assembly – The artist gathers and
joins together a variety of materials to construct a 3-D work of art.
Assemblage is a modern technique usually utilizing found items.
Kinetic Art – is a sculptural form that actually moves in space. (both externally and internally.)

Sculpture• No one can predict what the
sculptures of the future will look like. In one important way, however, they will be like the ones of past and present: They will continue to record the full range of human experience in ways that are sometimes shocking, sometimes touching, but always thrilling to see, to touch, and to appreciate.
