Course Description
What happens when artists resist the neatly divided disciplines of art history? What occurs in this amalgamated space between the disciplines? Amalgam emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach to studio practice, hybridizing the 2-D and 3-D areas of study. Extending between disciplines, this workshop employs endless technical flexibility as a guiding principle. Amalgam is a project-emphasis studio art workshop. Form (the technical component of your artwork) and content (the conceptual/idea component of your artwork) receive equal emphasis, as they are the inseparable tools, which allow artworks to communicate. Projects command the formal elements (volume, mass, composition, value, color, etc.) for their ability to contain and convey meaning. This is an eight week course.
