ART 3005 Sculpture: Wire Forms & Chains

A hands-on course designed for all levels of students interested in exploring the application of wire in three-dimensional art. Through a series of assignments the student will learn the manipulation and design possibilities of varying gauges of black steel, copper, brass and nickel silver wire. Although the course emphasis will be on aesthetics and abstraction, some wire forms explored and completed by the participant may be functional and/or realistic. Also included will be a variety of simply formed wire elements, which when combined construct chains useful as ornament and/or sculpture.
