FSU Visual Art Students exhibited their work
outside the Charles W. Chesnutt Library.
 These
sculptural forms explore planes and forms using different media in
three-dimensional space. Each work had to reach a minimum of 6 feet
in height or width, additionally resources available, withstand
outdoor conditions, and be installed as part of a class exhibit for
three weeks.
Student investigation began by researching the work of specific
master artists: Alexander Calder, Giacometti,, Judy Pfaff, Keith
Haring, Jackson Pollock. |
Don Graves, Michaele Saad, Amanda Halick, Michael Molina, Manuela Smith, Gale Araki, Laura Lang, Odesha Hill, James Porter,
Graham Hosh
and
Jovelyn Irizari
This research became the catalyst for a new
work by the student. Stage two of the process continued with an
initial sketch of three possible variations of form from which one
was selected. The final sketch took the form of a small 6”inch
prototype using
 paper,
poster board or foam core. The small versions were reworked to
consider the best variation of light, relationship of form to form,
space and variant of rhythm, etc.

I would like to congratulate my students…for
their determination to succeed and their creative potential.

This represents the “rough” conceptual
stage, followed by execution of the work to full scale. The
sculptural medium inherently requires students to adapt to an
atmosphere of cooperation, skill building/sharing and team work. The
variety of mediums on display demonstrate not only resourcefulness
and creative approaches to problem solving. I would like to
congratulate my students…for their determination to succeed and
their creative potential. |
