What are the narratives we create that can continue to evolve over time? In this hand-building class, we will explore personal storytelling in sculpture. Each piece will be as unique as the maker. Working from photographs or drawings, we’ll use basic slab and modeling techniques to render a sculpture considering composition, surface, and meaning. We will also make one-part plaster press molds to ornament our creations.
