It's an amazing range for a course as it really encompasses most of what you'll look into in art making. 2D and 3D and their junction points. It's the invention of photography that provides the backbone of this type of art made for over 100 years.
What do we have? Sculpture on the one hand and image on the other. It's really a sculpture course; it's sculpture with image, but it's the image part that changes everything. It's the spanner in the works. It's the game changer, so to speak.
In loose terms we have components: #D and 2 D
The 3D is the physical and exists through time. and then we have sight. Sight is the 2D.
With 3D there is body/form / and space and with that you get action, motion/ movement in time. You move around an object.
With 2D you get perception, the picture plane, the frame, the point of view, illusion, and an anchor point to hold on to, a fixed point in which to view something.
We are looking at the work in terms of the inherent qualities and throughout the course we will understand what those qualities of sculpture and image are and reflect on them. For instance the differences and similarities of 2D and 3D....
