An upper-division sculpture course with a technical and material focus on welding and fabrication with steel. A variety of welding and fabrication processes are explored. Builds on skills developed in lower division courses and expands sculptural thinking, refines personal visual language, advances the development of ideas, and builds technical skills. Experimental materials, methods, and concepts are explored and encouraged. Research and presentations of living sculptors offer perspective and context for contemporary issues and discussions which investigate those issues.
