The second half of the senior thesis for sculpture majors continuing a series of original sculptures documented in a written report. An exhibition of the work culminates the senior thesis. The student will also be expected to analyze and critique his or her work in relation to the field of contemporary sculpture. The focus of this course is the refinement of the individual's artistic statement through a series of sculptures. The student must present a statement of intent which explains the use of metaphor, materials and processes and a personal philosophy on reasons for pursuing a career in art.
Evaluation is based on the successful completion of the semester project and the progress report.
