The Amalgamation of Three-Dimensional and Two-Dimensional Processes

Description: Although drawing had offered me many avenues for image exploration and mark making, it lacked the actual physical relief surface that was a natural part of the printmaking plate process (i.e., intaglio plates or relief surfaces). Sculpture allowed the images and marks to be realized dimensionally in the round; therefore, the images became objects.

Presentation Options for Sculpture

Description: The act of putting anything on a base isolates it and makes it seem more precious. The base separates the viewer from the sculpture and affects the relationship between the sculpture and viewer.

The purpose of this study was to explore the presentation potentials of sculpture freed from the constraints of the plinth.

As Thought is to Speech

Description: This problem tries to bring together a comprehensive array of themes. There has been a duality between painterly techniques, recognizable images and disjunctive imagery.
