This course will be an initial introduction to sculpture in general. It will cover fundamental aspects of sculpture as `a language of form and space’. It is aimed to develop a basic knowledge and understanding about the practices in sculpture-making by looking from the historical and contemporary contexts, local and global. Students will be guided through a series of lectures, written assignments and demonstration to develop their basic knowledge of creative process in sculpture. The course will provide an opportunity for the students to explore and exercise basic sculptural practices in modelling and mould making using clay and POP(Plaster of Paris) /lost wax casting. Before the end of the semester, students will produce individual work(s) that are based from their findings. The main objective is to see how each student is able to develop his/her own hands-on practice in applying basic modelling and mould making in sculpture skills.
