Interdisciplinary Arts 0234 - In Search of Character

Through sculpture and drawing projects students will investigate the form and expression of the human head. Assignments will cover the study of the head in clay, the creation of masks, experiments in basic proportional systems, drawing from life and imagination, and more. Class discussions will draw from numerous cultural and historic points of view. The class will conclude with a major independent project of the student's own related to this subject. Students will have the option to work with either traditional or digital media. Significant outside work will be expected. Students will provide most drawing materials.
