Sculpture and Photography |
Thomas Macker |
| Course Description |
Found objects in the field (outside the studio) or maybe something the artist created/designed/arranged themselves. What is the status of the ready-made? More and more, humans’ leave behind detritus in the landscape (i.e.: a big rig tire tread, railroad tie, or souvenir cup) Students will use the camera to describe the sculptural: assigning formal value to both the object and landscape through the fixed single still image composition. Students are encouraged to develop their own portfolio culminating in critique.
Classes will meet once a week for six weeks. |
