This is a highly practical course which aims to develop your 3D art and design skills. You will explore a range of three dimensional media and techniques such as clay throwing and hand-building, plaster casting, modelling with wire and withies, glazing and glass fusing to create your own designs. Projects start with visual research, using photography and sketching to generate ideas. Alongside this you will study the work of other practitioners. This enhances your understanding of the area in which you’re working and helps you to develop your ideas further. Visits to museums, galleries and design exhibitions will broaden your knowledge of contemporary design and sculpture. From the research you gather you will then make maquettes (small-scale models) in order to develop your ideas and media handling further. Once you have completed this you are then ready to make your final piece. Both AS and A Level are made up of two components. At AS these are a portfolio of 2D and 3D work showing the depth and breadth of your learning and an externally set assignment.
