Art 141: Sculpture Foundation

Variants

April 21 - May 16, 2021

Gordon Snelgrove Gallery

Students in first-year sculpture studied on-line this past year due to Covid-19 restrictions. For their final term project, they worked with the concept of the coronavirus molecule with its spherical shape and radiating protein spikes – a relevant topic given the zeitgeist of the pandemic! Each student chose their own materials and processes for making the virus – with artistic license for inventive interpretations. Working in contemporary traditions of found-object assemblage, they created the multiple “variants” you see in the gallery below.

The Fall 2020 offering of this course and project are discussed here.
