What is sculpture and image to you?
Sculpture and Image is, to me, the chance to explore the three dimensional possibilities of the two dimensional images that I've known so thoroughly throughout my life.
What are your objectives for the course?
I hope to achieve a greater understanding of the dynamic between two dimensional images and three dimensional space- I've studied both exclusively but their relationship remains largely a mystery. Space is inextricable from perception, so this issue is of a great curiosity to me.
What would you like to accomplish in the course?
I would like to have produced - or at least conceived of the idea for the production of an installation piece that is truly realized both visually and conceptually.

Sculptre for me is the exploration of a medium through touch - I can take a form from my mind and give it structure and mass outside my imagination and construct it within the outside world. To bring image and sculpture to reality.
What are your objectives for the course?
My objective in this course remains unchanged. As always it is to challenge myself, to break down walls I have created for myself and take my art, hopefully to another plateau, beyond where I have reached now. To prove to myself that I can go further then I have in my past.

I would like to pass obviously, but most importantly I want to learn, to take away a knowledge and understanding of sculpture that I can share with others. (As I hope one day to be a high school art teacher.)
