Module overview:
Students are introduced to the methodology of systematic observation and perceptive abstraction of the art form they are creating and expressing in their own sculpture works through exercises. The exercises in this module are focused on (but not limited to) creating figurative portraits. This module relates to the program as a vital core for understanding 3D modelling in creative industries.
It is important for students to take this module in order to observe the regularities, the measuring system, and the ratio of the portrait, the head, and the bust. Then they are taught to observe irregularities and deviations from the system which gives the character of the form and transfer anatomic built, as well as enable the creation of a high-quality organic bust.
The industry standards today dictate that professionals are well versed in figurative art and this module contributes to the student’s development in the field of figurative sculpting as well as perceptive and conceptual figurative solutions on a professional level. The knowledge and skills presented in this module are enhancing the core skill set but also providing more specialized expertise in the fields of figurative art, sculpting, character/ creature conceptualization, etc.
