STONE SCULPTURE

82–41–M/16

STONE SCULPTURE – Stone sculpture – one of the oldest fields of study at the school is based on linking a good knowledge of the craft with an aesthetic sense. It also touches aspects of architecture, design and modern IT technologies. Students gradually gain experience with different sculpting materials. The foundation of their education is the study of the „eternal material“, stone, and how to work with it creatively. Students master the entire creative process, from drawing design to carving a sculpture in stone. Emphasis is placed on plastic invention and manual craftsmanship. The study of sculpture leads students to an independent creative understanding of the world and the events taking place in it.
