ARTSTUDI 155: Social Sculpture (TAPS 155)

Course Description

This course investigates the body as sculptural material in order to investigate private and social spaces. Through the development of projects in the realm of social practice, performance, and/or audience interaction, students will explore what it means to accept all aspects of life as potential sculpture. Artistic actions will be used to understand or question the function and psychological aspects of a space. We will use the social as material form for experimentation to combine language, concept, action, place, and object with civic engagement, participatory embodiment to structure the social.
