Sculpture: Surface Tension with Lauren Crawford
Class | Available
This sculpture course examines the surface as a site of investigation rather than decoration. Through casting, material experimentation, and installation, students will study how surfaces record history, mediate perception, and communicate cultural values. Combining observation, research, and studio practice, students will develop an independent body of work that considers how materials reveal, conceal, and transform our understanding of the world.
