Materiality and Technique in Contemporary Mixed Media Sculpture

This exam focuses on the exploration of various materials and techniques utilized in contemporary mixed media sculpture. Special emphasis will be placed on how these elements interact to create visual and conceptual depth.

Understanding materiality is vital for artists as it directly influences the viewer's perception and engagement with the artwork. This knowledge also facilitates innovative practices that challenge traditional sculptural conventions.

Participants will be assessed on their ability to articulate the significance of different materials and techniques, demonstrating insight into how these choices reflect broader artistic intentions and cultural contexts.

Students may also be encouraged to discuss how contemporary artists manipulate materials to enhance viewer interaction and generate dialogue around themes of identity and environment.
