2. ABSTRACT KINETIC RELIEF SCULPTURE

3. RELIEF SCULPTURE RELIEF SCULPTURE IS A TYPE OF SCULPTURE IN WHICH THE FORM PROJECTS FROM A BACKGROUND. IN HIGH RELIEF, THE FORMS STAND FAR OUT FROM THE BACKGROUND. IN LOW RELIEF (BEST KNOWN AS BAS- RELIEF), THEY ARE SHALLOW.

4. OBJECTIVES formal: to introduce the studio fundamentals of "bas" relief (low relief) and "haut" relief (high relief) sculpture. technical: to gain experience in working with celluclay and joint compound.

5. HIGH RELIEF Form that extends half way out of the back ground or flat surface that it is built on.

6. Bas Relief/ low relief Form that is almost flat and very slightly coming off of the background plane.

7. EXAMPLES OF BAS RELIEF

8. ABSTRACT ART art that does not attempt to represent external reality, but seeks to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colors, and textures. Art that speaks to the essence not the exact replication.

9. REPRESENTATIONAL ART Form that is recognizable as being an exact replica, or abstraction of a real person, place, or thing. Inspired by real life, not just reminiscent of it

28. YOUR MISSION IS : Create an abstracted relief sculpture with a Kinetic element. Materials: Celluclay/ paper pulp, cardboard, armature materials if needed, molding materials, wooden skewers, beads, numbers etc. Subject matter choices: A geometric/ organic non-representational form A representational form that is recognizable as something.

29. HOW CAN I ABSTRACT AN OBJECT? Exaggeration Repetition Altered proportions Play with one action, trait or element that it has

30. BREAKING THE 2-D SPACE Stacking Weaving Standing Entwining Braid Overlap Mound it ?

31. KINETIC ART = A FORM OF ART THAT DEPENDS ON MOVEMENT FOR ITS EFFECT.

34. PROCESS 1.Present project/Research ( 1 Day) 2.Design ( 1 Day) 3.Construction ( 4 Days) 4.Joint compound( 1 Day) 5.Gesso ( 1 Day) 6.Paint with Acrylic paint

35. RESEARCH AND DESIGN ( 1 DAY) Today we will continue to work on IDEATION. Remember the size of your substrate (surface) Create 3 possible sketches… talk about your idea with one other person before you show me Think big but be reasonable What will be the Kinetic addition to your project?

36. CONSTRUCTION ( 4 DAYS) Today we will work on CONSTRUCTION. Remember to allow for contrast in your layers Use a variety of methods to create levels that are clear We want to see 0-4 in terms of levels Nothing higher than 2 inches Be sure your construction is sturdy

37. JOINT COMPOUND( 1 DAY) Today we will be icing your project. Be sure to completely cover/fill with JOINT COMPOUND. Cardboard edges Seams Surfaces

38. GESSO ( 1 DAY) Today we will be priming the project and deciding how to add color. Gesso your entire project Create an updated sketch and color BE PREPARED TO PAINT FOR 2 DAYS, STARTING TOMORROW.

39. PAINT WITH ACRYLIC PAINT (2 DAYS) Today we will be beginning one of two painting days. Paint!!
